Plus, well, Glock has a helluva lot of market share, which means sales.Īnyway, away with the aside and on to the magazines. And up until last year, all of the non-OEM options were quite terrible (I actually have several, for use at the range when I want to practice malfunctions without setting them up myself). On the other hand, more options is always better for the consumer. Even during the panics I never really had a problem with finding them NIB for $25 or below, which I consider quite reasonable. After all, Glock has some of the most affordable OEM magazines on the market today (if you don't believe me, have a gander at OEM mag prices for FN's). Regarding aftermarket Glock magazines, I'm of two minds: The first is admittedly a tad incredulous. Even the oft-ignored Glock 26 got a translucent ten rounder.Īnd for those that don't live in friendly states, 10 round magazines are also available. The 22 round and 31 round magazines (especially the 22 round magazine, if I'm being honest) get the gears going. The Glock 19 magazine was pleasant surprise. Of course the standard Glock 17 magazine was an obvious choice, and really all that I expected. The “expanded initial lineup” soon became clear: ETS was going to drop a lot of different 9mm magazines all once. Their first run was slated to be released right around the same time as Magpul's Glock mag offering, but the rollout was delayed due to tooling and an expanded initial lineup so ultimately Magpul beat them to the first punch. Last year they began leaking photographs of a new venture: Glock magazines. They first caught the attention of people with their visually striking translucent magazines, and then doubled down with high visibility followers and bodies that could be coupled without the need for any special adapters.

Elite Tactical Systems (ETS) is a relative newcomer on the big scene that has become AR-15 magazines.
