Forgotten Weapons: No, it Doesn’t Take Glock Mags

“But does it take Glock mags?”

To some folks, that’s the ultimate question about any gun, especially semi-auto carbines chambered for handgun rounds. But in the video below, Ian of Forgotten Weapons opines on the subject, telling folks why Glock magazines are not the greatest thing in the history of time — at least for some applications.

Ian pontificates on such things as double-stacking, single feed, double feed, curved magazine bodies, strength of polymer vs. steel, magazine catch location, and action hold-opens in an attempt to educate the masses on why some designs work better for other applications.

There’s not a heck of a lot else to say about this video, so I’ll turn you over to Ian now. Hope you enjoy it!
