Has anyone ever tried to run 9mm bullets in a .40 S&W 22rd mag? Will the 22rd mag fit into a Glock 17/19?
I remember a few years back on HKPRO.com that a few guys were taking .40S&W mags for their P2000 (? or maybe it was another model but it was definatly HK), putting 9mm in them (because they could get 1 or 2 extra rounds in) and running them in their P2000 9mm's. Just wondering if the same could be done with the Glock. I do not have a Glock 17/19 to try this out on. |

I have shot 500 +- 50 rnd out of my 17 with 22 mags. It worked ok had a few FTF though. |

Some guys at HKPRO helped me find the correct thread from 2010. It was originally for the USPc, they use the same mag as the P2000, so theoretically it should work for both models.

Never tried it, but have to ask... if you can have a 22 round .40 mag, why not get a 33 round 9mm mag? I was thinking about another thread where someone said they wished Glock would make a mag the same size as the 22rd .40 SW for 9mm. They thought the 33rd 9mm mag was to long and the 22rd .40SW mag was just the correct length. So it got me thinking if anyone had ever tried to use a 22rd .40SW mag in a 9mm pistol. That's all. I have no interest in actually trying it out, only being inquisitive. |
