I bought a couple G17 mags today. After I got them home I looked them over and each one had a small rectangle cutout on the front that exposes the metal liner. WTF? They are the same gen as my others and these are the only ones I've ever seen like this. Did I get ripped off?

sounds like you got the new mags they are making for the Ambi safeties that are supposedly coming out for all Glock models... thats just a guess from what i've been reading lately.

Stop laughing at me! I have a higher post count than you!
Just kidding.
Did you see it? What's wrong with the mag? Is it a factory blem? Should I send them to Glock for repare?

AFAIK ALL new 9mm (Except G18) 10mm and 45 mags look like that, it's for the ambi mag release.

Finger nail light taped to the mag and the magazine I'm scard for life!

So: if this is for the new ambi mag release: the new guns won't be able to use regular glock mags???????????

yes, sort of

any new glocks w/ the AMBI release buttons will NOT take the older non-ambi mags

ambi mags will work in both ambi and non-ambi mag release glocks

bear in mind though, as of now, only the G21sf has a model that has an ambi mag release option so far; there are no ambi mag releases yet on small frame glocks

The long pinky nail is a built in coke scooper and the extended mag with taped on light is very tacticool!

Glock Model 17MB and Glock Model 19MB are available in the EU.
They are not currently available in the USA.

The MB designation is being used to indentify Glocks with the ambi-mag release.
