They better get it in gear and get the product out.

The attack on the 2nd starts very soon.

I hope to get two or three. I have the AR drum mags and love them!

“It is recommended that you install a new OEM magazine release on Gen 1-3 GLOCK handguns to support the extra weight of the magazine. Gen 4 GLOCK handguns will require an aftermarket metal magazine release. Installation of a new recoil spring assembly to ensure reliable feeding is strongly recommended. Individual variations between firearms may result in an extra power recoil spring being required.

Use of this D-50 GL9 in pistol caliber carbines (PCC) is not recommended, because the increased length of the feed tower will be partially unsupported in most pistol caliber magazine wells. This unsupported condition may cause premature wear on the feed tower magazine catch, and (in firearms which deviate from factory magazine well specifications) may result in improper round presentation and failures to feed.”

No kidding. Value of the ammo > value of the magazine.

I would rather go with a pocket full of factory G 17 mags.

Plus a couple of G18 mags in the back pockets do not hurt.

Thats alot of bullshit for a magazine Especially if you have a few, or all, generations of glock19/17.
I wouldn't have expected magpul to have anything like that on a product.

Sounds like a piece of shit.  They’re already making excuses for it and it’s not even released yet.

I have to say, I find it a bit disconcerting the way the drum wobbles around in the videos on full auto fire. I can see why the magazine catch could be an issue after prolonged use. If you watch Magpul’s D-60 video, there’s some shaking when the 5.56 version is fired, but nothing like the 9mm version:
