No.  Spend your money on factory Glock magazines.

I'll share a story...

CTbuilder and I bought some KCI mags specifically to pull the guts out of, fill with lead, and duracoat blue to use as weighted (inert) training mags.  When I brought them to his house we were on the way to the range and somehow two of the KCI mags made their way into the range bag.  How do I know?  Because the only two equipment-induced malfunctions that I've ever experienced with a Glock firearm occurred that day.

Buy OEM Glock mags.

Was just about to share this story....


And I pose a question that I'm sure Mr Gaper or Ray will be able to answer - Does anyone know how they chose the name "KCI"?

Thanks for the feedback.

I found a guy selling the conversion Ive been looking for (G23 - 9mm) and hes got one Glock mag and two KCI mags and is asking a little much so before I make a counter offer I wanted to see if the KCI were worth anything.

Thanks again.

I think brand new they were $5 to $7 a piece.  What are they worth?  IMO, zero.
