KCI GLOCK MAGS?

[fightingquaker13]

I've never heard of these guys, but J@G sales has a package of two 15 rounders plus a pouch for $30. Has any one had experience with them? I'm tempted to give it a pass and buy factory, but I don't want to turn up my nose at a good deal either.

I have a few. They function fine for me. I only use them for practice, I never use them for carry.

I think I read somewhere that South Korea only adopted Glock pistols (for their army I think) after receiving an extremely good deal on the guns. The story goes that Glock decided it would make up its losses on the pistols by charging more for extra magazines. The Koreans responded by making KCI magazines for their generously priced pistols

(Anyone who knows otherwise, feel free to correct me.)

Me as well. I bought 5 for something like $12 ea. and they all perform fine for range work. No misfeeds or any issues with them.

I've been looking for the reason factory Glock magazines took a big price hike a couple of years back. Around 2 years ago I bought over 20, 13 round Glock mags. for my 2 Glock 21's from Natchez for $13.99 each if you bought 10 or more. Then, all of a sudden they almost doubled overnight. I never heard the reason why, but your explanation certainly sounds plausible. As for the KCI magazines, I'll stick with factory Glock. I never seem to have very good luck with aftermarket magazines, especially with my Ruger Mini 14. If it doesn't say "Ruger" on the magazine, the gun automatically becomes very unreliable.  Bill T.

Wow! The gun grabbers were right.... it is easy to convert them things to full-auto!

As I posted before, I've never seen or handled a KCI magazine, but as far as J&G Sales, I've bought several guns from them, mostly AK-47's, and they are very good to deal with. Most all of what they sell has a 30 day exchange policy.  Bill T.

30 days is probably plenty of time to see if they work properly.  If they don't F&L, all you're out is a bit of shipping.

Most likely worth the risk.

Although, I'm the type of putz that'll buy a basket case gun without knowing if I can put it back together so...grain o' salt!

I have 4 of these mags and they work great. I only paid $9.99 for them at 44mag.com.
