Reviews Summary
The ProMag .22LR magazines for Glock 44 receive mixed reviews; while some users find them functional after a break-in period, many report jamming issues, especially when loaded with the full 18 rounds. Loading difficulties and inconsistent performance lead some to prefer factory options, although these are seen as price attractive by others seeking high-capacity solutions.
What Reviewers Are Saying
Reliability Issues
70%
Many reviewers express significant concerns about the reliability of the magazines, especially when attempting to load 18 rounds, leading to frequent jams and malfunctions. While some find success at lower round counts, the overall reliability remains a common disappointment.
Loading Difficulty
65%
Numerous users note the difficulty of loading these magazines, particularly due to the heavy spring tension and small thumb tabs. This challenge is often highlighted in conjunction with reliability issues, suggesting that the design may need improvements for easier handling.
Break-in Period
50%
Several reviewers mention a required break-in period for these magazines, suggesting that performance can improve with use. However, this requirement raises concerns about the initial usability and expectations of a functional product right out of the box.
Value for Money
40%
While some customers appreciate the cost-effectiveness of these higher-capacity magazines compared to factory options, the inconsistent performance leads to mixed feelings about their overall value versus reliability and ease of use.
Design Flaws
35%
Critiques of the magazine design include the round return springs and small load assist tabs, which many feel hinder functionality. A few reviewers suggest that a single-stack design might better suit the magazine's purpose by preventing binding issues.

Stick with Glock Mags
I decided to try these magazines with my Glock 44. the gun came with 2 factory mags, and I ordered 4 of these. It was the price that I found attractive. In comparison, the springs on these are plain coil springs that do not occupy the entire inside of the magazine, and have heavier spring tension. Whereas the Glock springs more rectangular. The Promag springs were so heavy that loading just the equivalent 10 rounds was approximately twice as difficult, or twice the spring tension. A major drawback was the thumb tabs. they are small and flush with the body, and very difficult to keep pressed down. The Glock tabs are much larger and have good serration for grip. By appearance at the feed lips they should feed the same, however, the Federal ammo I was using would not feed well, and there was enough drag to cause stove piped empties. I did not get this with the Glock mags using the same ammo. The Glock mags are single stack where the Promags are double, due to the 18 rnd capacity. This resulted in the cartridges' binding in the magazines. Had they stuck to a single stack, this may have been avoided. Over all, I would recommend that Glock 44 owners stick with factory magazines. I have Promags for other guns and they work just fine. Just not for this gun.

Needs to be redesigned
The return spring is round and just "flops" around under the follower. The spring should be rectangular. The load assist tabs are too small also. I attempted to use these several times, and they will not function in our Glock 44.
