Single stack glock magazines won't because they don't have enough spring pressure on the follower to activate the BHO. Pinned to 10 double stack magazines should work as they have higher spring pressure on the follower.

Some glock magazines in Canada are single stack, true 10 round only with low spring pressure (ie you can't make them hold more than 10 ever), while others would be original 17, 15, 12 round higher capacity magazines pinned to hold 10 rounds with a higher spring pressure.

You can quickly check if you have "true" 10 round magazines vs a pinned magazine by looking at this picture (true 10 round single stack magazine on right, pinned to 10 round double stack magazine on left (the pin in the 14 spot blocks the follower to make the magazine only hold 10))

The one on the left should activate the BHO, while the one on the right might fail to activate it.

true, I assume that is why Wolverine supplies decided supply the FX-9 with a factory g26 double stack 10 round magazine instead of trying to pin g17/19/34 double stack magazines where the quality of the pin could be inconsistent or have factory 10 round G17/19/34 magazines which are single stack 10 rounders which may not activate the BHO.
 
It's been long enough, we need to get a SITREP, the last update was on oct 14... more than a week.
 
no to be a Debbie downer, but I'm thinking more novemberish. and I'm thinking but hopefully will be wrong but probably only at best a couple hundred guns.
but I totally hope wolverine will prove me wrong.
 
Any one like to share a picture of the FX-9 after they received it?
The demo I have handle it in IPSC National is kind of small.
Is it the real size?

Small in a good way? Can’t wait to see it in real life!!! It would be sweet if it end up being as compact as a 16 inch ar even with the longer barrel!!
 
Had a pleasure to visit Wolverine tent at IPSC Nationals - thanks guys for the sport support.
Handled the FX-9....what a beauty: nice finishing, points wery well, definitely a "must to have" firearm, especially since the PCC Division is approved in IPSC.....
