KCI magazine for GLOCK Pistol
I bought 10 of the 17 round versions to use for practice and for GSSF matches to save wear and tear on my duty magazines. I’ve shot several hundred rounds through these magazines with no problems at all. I wish they were made in the 10 round version for the GLOCK 26 because I would buy them over the factory magazines for the same use as above.
RIA model STK100 spare mag
Having read the review of the new RIA STK100 in a recent G&A magazine I went right out and bought it, only to learn it only came with 1 magazine. Musta missed that in the article! I came to Brownell's and ordered the KCI mag for my new pistol because it was slated as a "drop free" mag. And doggoned if it ain't! Unlike my Glock mags that won't drop free from my new RIA STK100 this mag does - every time. I highly recommend this mag as it is very well built, very robust and very much worth the price. I intend to purchase more, LOTS more!
Great extra/range mags!
These KCI Korean Glock mags are legit. They have a steel insert and back witness holes just like OEM. Normally they cost less than half of a real OEM mag. Theyve creeped up in price lately, bringing down their total value per dollar but still cheaper than others. A little anecdotal evidence: I shot my G19 with these mags and OEM gen5.... I actually had a oem misfeed and the Korean one was flawless! Perhaps a limp wrist but the point is that KCI can hang at the range/target shooting.
They work good
It cycles fine the spring is weaker you can feel it but does not seem to affect function at all. Serves my needs as practice/range mags.
OEM?
I needed something to justify shipping for a small order. I can allways use another mag. These look to be good ones. Look OEM till you look at the bottom plate. I haven't used it yet, but don't anticipate any problem.
They work
I was a little hesitant at first so I only ordered 3. Once they arrived I went to the range. I took 2 different brands of ammo and 1 Glock 17 (OEM) and one polymer80 build. The KCI 17 round magazines worked perfectly. I had no issues with either gun or ammunition. These mags look exactly like OEM (except baseplate logo) and fit perfectly. I have since bought more 17 round and 15 rounders for G19. Try them, you won't be disappointed.
Great quality great price
If it said Glock you wouldn't know the difference.
Fantastic.
I have about 12 of these in various sizes (15, 17, and 33rd) and they all work fantastic, I've shot all kinds of ammo through them without a hiccup, steel, aluminum, brass, and reloaded brass. I've even shot a few mags alternating different kinds of ammo to try and get them to jam. I've shot a decent 2k plus rounds through them, never cleaned them. I drop them on straight on the ground in dry fire and range conditions. Never had a problem with them, I even have a couple with extended base plates in +5 configurations. I would absolutely trust my life to these mags. Your findings may vary, but I've never had a problem with them in humid south Florida Weather.
Good Buy
Good construction, magazines work well with my Glock.
Some problems
I bought 6 of these magazines and was very excited to try them out given the price and they appear to be an almost exact copy. I shot several hundred rounds today with some problems. One magazine has consistent feed problems and another after a few rounds would drop out of the gun after every shot. they may be okay for the range at the price but with 1/3 of them with problems I can't really recommend them. I have not had any problems with factory Glock magazines to date.
