what is this glock magazine exchange program you mentioned? I’ve never heard of such a thing, and my google-fu seems weak today. does it have an official name or is it just something they do? I was unable to find anything except for the RSA program…

The first Glock 19 I kept* came with two of the neutered 10 round magazines.

They suck. A buddy told me a new follower fixes that, for now, they’re range mags.
I still have a couple AR mags (no AR at the moment) and can’t recall if any have that inscription or not.

Some of my Glock magazines do have the “restricted” marks, most don’t.

Due to current events, anybody figuring the next 4 years will be a picnic needs to wake up and buy a pile of them. After all, if one would have had a friendly visit from a time traveler back in 1993 about pending legislation, who wouldn’t have bought a shipping container full of Glock and AR mags, plus a dozen AR’s with “eeeeeebil” features aboard…even knowing ten years later it’d be rescinded, one could have lived nicely selling 25 dollar product for 100 bucks here and there.

*kept, as in, I’m pretty sure I bought the only Glock I’ve ever seen that had a problem with in the form of the first one I purchased.

Sad that it ever happened, but glad that we’ve got the inertia back over on our side again!

The day it sunset, I went down and bought a trophy Bushhamster mag at our local LE distributor. I didn’t own any high-cap pistols at the time, so I bought a G20 magazine, just because I could, and gave it to the first person I ran into who owned a G20.

Oh, I remember those days. I remember a 25 round Butler Creek 10/22 mag going for $80 and crying if anything happened to Glock mags. I also remember how stupid those 10 rounders were and I still have some around. I use them for dummy round practice. You’re right, we need to remember this so history doesn’t repeat itself.

[...] PDB reminds us that the lessons of 1994 through 2004 should never be forgotten and simple things should be a reminder that we should never allow our guard to be down through inaction or complacency. [...]
