I have heard that the earlier runs had issues, but the ones dated 5/15 are better.

(p.s.- maybe PM dj_fatstyles, I think he had some 33's on his 9mm AR)

those were the ETS happy sticks but i do own about 7 of the magpul glock mags. the magpuls are cheaper than factory and i think better. ive put a couple hundred through them and they always work 100%. if youre ever down by me, hit me up and ill let you fondle my mag. :bigsmile:

again...why?? not sure why one would want to "save a buck" considering the potential ramifications. Why would one bother for a couple bucks when the originals are well......bullet proof

what I don't get is why Magpul wont make Pmags for the Mini-14/Mini-30.....

I ran two different ones, multiple times today. They ran really good. No issues for me. My only complaint is that mine don't have any way to tell how many rounds are in, or left if you lose count.

Magpul Glock mags are good to go. I picked up several used ones in a trade, and they run great in my G17 Gen3 and my AR-9. No issues whatsoever.
