Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
1 of the 3 mags doesn't hold the slide back after last round about 50% of the time. I'll clean my gun then try again. If it continues to be a problem I'll contact Glock.
I bought 4 10 rounders about 2 years ago. 1 of them had the same issue with holding the slide back. Glock replaced it and all was good. I have concern about Glock's QA on the lower capacity mags.

If I could shoot a 19 as well as my 17 would get one, but for whatever reason I can't shoot the 19 very well.
A Glock factory 15 round G17 mag would involve the body bulging at the bottom to single-stack dimensions, so it would still take the regular spring, floorplate and follower, but not allow the bottom two rows to double-stack, while still using the same factory spring and follower. Modification would involve hogging out the restriction at the bottom to fit 17 instead of 15 if you lived in a free state.
This follows the pattern of the 10 round G17 mag, where the body was bulged to single-stack dimensions all the way down, internally, resulting in a 10-rd magazine still using the same factory follower, spring and floorplate as the regular 17rd original.

Exilemachine.net also has the factory 15 round G17 mags in stock. If I recall they were just under $22 plus shipping.
I'm glad that Glock is trying to help their customers here in Colorado (and any place else with 15rd restrictions), but frankly I'd never buy these on principal. I would rather violate this stupid stupid law.

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
I respect that.Originally Posted by Zundfolge
I cleaned my gun and tried again. Used all 3 multiple times and they worked perfectly!

Fuck Rapsheet Fields. Fuck "if an apology is necessary, let this be that" Chickenlooper. Fuck every Democrat from 2013. I'll throw a few more 33's in the truck for spite.
A 19, or a 23, is all I'll ever need. But I do also very much like the feel of my 17C, 17L and 34. And my EDC is a 26.

I have a 17, a 19, and a 26.... The 17 does shoot best, but the 19 and 26 are damn nice too.
Well said
