Glock 43 nine round Shield Z9 magazines?

[rich e]

Initial you tube videos look very promising.

$140 for the Shield steel mag catch and 3- nine round mags.
$100 for two mags/m-catch or
$60 for one mag/m-catch

I already carry mine with the pinky extension so the outside dimensions won't change.

Any one try these out yet?

Hell I didn*t even know they made these*. Might be buying some down the road.

Shield Arms had a big sale last week also. Dangit I missed it...

They have reliability issues in the 43x, not worth the price for a few extra rnds and a better chance at malfunctioning.

What I've seen on youtube is last round hold open issues with some. Do they have other issues as well?

When I first started shooting (ages ago) I tried aftermarket magazines in my Taurus PT92 (first 9). Promags and Ramlines I believe? THOSE were JUNK mags! They would jam up your gun every way possible. Believe it or not the factory Taurus mags were reliable but expensive. I learned early on stick with factory mags even for Taurus firearms.

I wished all those mags did was, "not hold open after the last round".

I*ve seen on some other forums where some were having issues, some weren*t. It*s enough for me to just stick with factory mags. The fact that you have to change the mag catch to their steel one would be a no go for me.
