Got tired of wheeling my trash cans down my long, inclined driveway.
This worked, but I reckon the can is going to get demolished in the long term. Is there a "proper" piece of equipment that would solve this? Bonus points if it can take two trash cans at a time. The issue being they get quite heavy and I can't pick them up into my trailer/wagon. Trailer with a ramp perhaps?
Update to my original post (https://www.reddit.com/r/Glock43X/comments/1tlgtdp/15rnd_mags_initial_range_report/)
One user suggested perhaps my recoil spring assembly was on the way out, and maybe these mags had less tolerance for an RSA on it's last legs.
Plausible. I shoot this gun a lot, as my EDC, but don't track the rounds. Didn't think I was anywhere near replacing the RSA. But I thought lets go for it and eliminate that as a possible root cause.
Brand new OEM RSA. Same issues with my carry ammo (Federal HST). Every mag FTFs on an empty chamber. Slide does not go into battery, round stuck on feed ramp. Again it's as if the new mags juuuust don't sit quite high enough.
All stock internals.
I run my Glocks pretty dirty, so I thought ok lets deep clean it and see. No improvement.
Anyone else having problems with this ammo? HP with a less aggressive tip / FMJ seems to be feeding ok, but HST has quite a wide hollow point.
I haven't see other users report wide spread issues, so maybe I got a batch of lemons? I will reach out to Glock and see what they will do.
In the meantime, I am sticking with the classic ten rounders for carry.
Have seen people posting lots of pictures of the new magazines in the packaging but not many range reports so here goes.
I pre-ordered three from Glock store in mid March and they arrived a couple days ago. Fit and finish seems really good. Easy to insert and release.
They run Blazer FMJ great, from the first round to the last. Didn't get to put as many rounds as I wanted to through them. Probably only about 50 rounds each.
When I went to try my carry ammo, Federal HST 124 grain, that's where the problems started. As pictured, the first round had issues going into battery on an empty chamber. All three mags had the same issue. Varying from a little catch on the slide as it went forward into battery, to the slide getting stuck in me having to push it forward.
Worth noting I only had about five rounds in each magazine. They might do better with a full load and more pressure on the follower. Didn't get to test.
Once the first round was seated it did cycle the rest of the magazine fine. Again, didn't get to run these as much as I originally planned so I'll have to come back.
Curious if anyone else has had issues. These will be relegated to range use until I can run them a bit more.
My range day got cut a little short so I will give these another try again soon and update.
