SGM Tactical 9mm 10-Round Extended Magazine for Glock 17 Pistols Review

As a Glock 17 owner, I’m always on the lookout for high-quality aftermarket magazine options that can enhance my shooting experience. The SGM Tactical 9mm 10-Round Extended Magazine for Glock 17 Pistols caught my attention, and I was excited to put it to the test. In this review, I’ll share my experience with the product, highlighting its pros and cons, and provide an objective assessment of its performance.

Design and Build Quality

The SGM Tactical magazine is built around the PTFE (Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene) coated steel construction, which provides a durable and corrosion-resistant finish. The magazine body is made from a thick, high-quality polymer that feels robust and solid in the hand. The magazine’s design is reminiscent of the original Glock magazine, but with a sleeker and more streamlined shape.

Functionality and Performance

I was pleased with the magazine’s performance during my testing. It fed and extracted flawlessly, even with a mix of full-metal-jacketed and hollow-point ammunition. The magazine’s spring-loaded action made it easy to load and unload the rounds, and the knuckle-style buffer made it comfortable to manipulate.

Pros and Cons:

  • Pros:
    • Durable construction and robust build quality
    • Proven reliability and functionality
    • PTFE coating provides corrosion resistance
    • Easy to load and unload
    • Affordable price point compared to other aftermarket options
  • Cons:
    • Some users may find the magazine’s shape less ergonomic than the original Glock mag
    • May not be compatible with certain aftermarket Glock triggers or accessories
    • Some users reported issues with the magazine’s feed lips, which may require adjustment

Conclusion

The SGM Tactical 9mm 10-Round Extended Magazine for Glock 17 Pistols is a solid option for Glock 17 owners looking to upgrade their magazine game. With its durable construction, reliable performance, and affordable price point, it’s a great value for the money. While it may not be perfect, the SGM Tactical magazine is a decent choice for those seeking a high-quality aftermarket magazine.

Additional Tips and Recommendations:
