Only downside is they just started charging sales tax for WA. I noticed that. Pretty sure thing they do a decent business in WA state. But as I stated I essentially have a running tab.....I'm ordering stuff when last order hasn't arrived! ! 2nd on PrimaryArms. Ordered a bunch of stuff that shipped out same/next day.

Brownells had a sale on Glock mags just in the last few days; don't know if it's still on.
While I like Magpul for AR mags, IMO when it comes to Glock, the OEM Glock mags are still better. With Magpul I had some feed issues with shorter (compared to standard 115 ball) rounds, and they wouldn't handle my longer subsonic heavy bullet loads at all because internal space is less than OEM Glock mags.

I agree. Good to know. I have a growing stack of the magpuls, and they run my standard 115gr loads and subsonic 147gr loads just fine. However, I keep the COL/OAL/COAL (whatever acronym you use) the same at 1.135" iirc.

I agree. Fascinating. I didn't know this. I had no issues with the previous Magpul Glock mags. I may compare the two types closely. My PA order came yesterday. Just like that!

Tonight I will do some further dimensional analysis. With my cheapie digital caliper the Magpul is maybe .002 or .003" shorter in bullet length space. The follower is obviously different shape, the two play improperly perhaps. As I said in 9mm I only shoot factory ammo and zero issues.

What's everybody's experience with the ETS mags vs. Factory mags?
ETS seems like a very good lower-priced alternative to factory if they perform well.

ETS seems like a very good lower-priced alternative to factory if they perform well. I did not have a good experience with the 31-rd ETS mags I ordered through PSA on one of their Daily Deals. The springs/followers bound on 2 of them when I reached ~20 rds loaded. The rest loaded just fine, but I had a few failures to feed in my AR-9 (which has never had trouble with either factory Glock or Magpul mags). If you want cheaper aftermarket Glock mags, Magpul is the way to go, IMHO.
