This video provides a critical assessment of Magpul PMAG 17 GL9 magazines for Glock handguns. The instructor, Trench Grenade, details personal experiences with these magazines, highlighting significant reliability issues like failure to feed and double feeds. He strongly advises against using them for home defense or duty, recommending them only as training magazines due to their propensity for malfunctions. The video contrasts them with OEM Glock magazines, which are deemed more reliable for critical applications.
This video compares the durability of OEM Glock magazines against aftermarket polymer magazines (ETS, Magpul) through a series of torture tests. The instructor, with extensive experience in firearm abuse testing, demonstrates that stock Glock magazines, despite cosmetic damage, maintain functionality through extreme conditions like being buried in dirt and ground into the earth. Aftermarket polymer magazines, in contrast, showed significant functional issues under similar stress.
This video showcases a TMag, a training or translucent magazine, being tested in a factory unmodified HK 416 during a full-auto test. The description notes that the TMag has been externally modified on its forward edge to ensure proper seating within the HK 416's longer magazine well. The test focuses on the compatibility and performance of this modified magazine with the specific firearm.
