Fun addition for target shooting.

I bought this primarily for target and recreational shooting. I like that I can see the rounds in the magazine as an added safety feature too. It is high quality but I'll probably stick with the Glock OEM for defensive carry.

I love these clear Mags.

I use these mags in my Ruger Charger. So far they have worked flawlessly. My mags can only fit 30 rounds, not 31. But they are still amazing even with 1 less round than advertised.

ETS Glock magazine

I own several of these mags for all my Glock pistols. They work great after initial break in. Load - unload 3 or 4 times to work the follower and spring and then they all run flawlessly!

Excellent Mags

I have 10 or more of these mags. I've been using them for over 2 years now. I use them in classes, competition and carry them daily. I beat them to death. They get used and abused so much that some of them are black now. I don't have any feeding issues with them. When they are new it can sometimes be hard to get the full 17 rounds in. I just smack it off the table or bench when getting that last one in. After about a few cycles then you can get the last round in no problem. Not to sure how some people are having trouble when I really put the mags through their paces. I have both the 17 rounders and the 15s.

Works great

Hard to beat these for the money and the warranty. Loaded with 22 the mag will need a good bump to lock in the gun on a closed slide.

Great Magazines, mine have been flawless

Great magazines, making up for the lack of 140mm / 21-22rd OEM magazines. Like all new magazines they can be stiff when first loading and now that you can see what a magazine spring does, you might be tempted to think something is wrong. But they are very reliable and durable, at least my 6 x 22 and 6 x 15rd mags have been.

Much better than the competition

ETS 17rd mags

I'm a LEO and Competition shooter and run Glock pistols for about everything. I have over 1,000 through the 17 rounders in the last month and have not had any issues. The rounds are stacking fine in my mags and have never had any feeding issues even during mag dumps. I am constantly dropping these mags on concrete in both my garage during dry-fire and the indoor range for live-fire. I've stepped on them and kicked them and they don't seem to want to fail me yet. I have started to run these with TTI base pads and still haven't had any issues. Solid quality and plan on buying several more.

Works great in Glock

Bought 3 of these mags; 17 round, 22 round, and 31 round magazine. I've ran them in a Glock 17, Glock 34, and a Glock 22 with a 9mm conversion barrel. They've worked very well in all 3 guns. I can't speak for AR-9 rifles or custom built Glocks, as the other reviewers have mentioned. I had a lot of issue with a custom build 10mm Glock uses Glock factory magazines, so it might just be the gun, and not the magazine.
