Glock mags: 10 round factory VS. pinned

[jlomein]

Is there any difference in reliability or ease of disassembly/reassembly in the Glock OEM 10 round magazines, versus Glock OEM full capacity mags (15/17 rounds) pinned to 10 rounds?

I know that the pinned ones are easier to load but I have no idea about reliability

 

[B]

Much easier to load and in my experiences completely reliable.

Who sells pinned ones BTW?

Sporteque for $35 +tax. They are internally blocked not pinned.

Is the internal blocking permanent, or can it be removed with tools or hard use? I don't want to accidentally have a prohibited device.

Pinned factory mags are the way to go, when the zombies come you'll thank me

TSE in Calgary has them, pinned not blocked.

They just have a piece of plastic inserted in the mag that can be easily removed by popping off the baseplate. They sell tons of them and I have never heard of anyone having any issues with them.

Stop worrying about stupid stuff. A full capacity mag
Is a paper violation its not a threat to public safety. Should the limiting device fail just fix it yourself and move on.
