G48 / G43X game changing 15 round magazine?

[Route 45]

Agreed, I hope they work out as well. In deference to the old story about the US development of the Space Pen during the space race, spending millions of dollars while the Russians just used a pencil, sometimes old ideas can be the answer.

Nope. Fake news.

NASA did not spend any money developing a space pen, and pencils are not necessarily a good idea in a microgravity, oxygen-rich environment.

I wondered where he's been....

Thank you for the review HICKMAN. Hopefully mine will be here next week. If they work I will grab 6 more when they are available.

yeah, I want several more myself, and maybe one of the +5 extenders when they are available. LOL, imagine a reload of 20 for the spare mag

Psssh, a G17 mag with a +5 has been my spare for years. Get with the times JT! Good review buddy, glad to see you're doing well.

Hadn't seen those yet, pretty awesome, but $80 per mag is tough.

Any updates on when these will be available? I’ve got two buddies who pre-ordered and still haven’t received theirs. I was hoping to test theirs out before ordering my own.

$80/mag is pricey but the 15 rounds would tip the scales in favor of this pistol for many

I got mine last week. Took them to the range on Friday and put 200 rounds through the mags without issue. I am pretty darn excited to have 15+1 in my G48!

Good to see they’ve got issues fixed and the initial positive reviews.

 

[Skullglide]

At $40 per mag, they are not cheap, but the three I received are well worth it. 650 rds of steel cased and 250rds of 147 brass case and they are running great in my 43x.

 

[mwwilkew]

Ahh, good to see that. $40 per mag is much more reasonable.
