wondering if anyone has had any problems with difficult loading the
Glock  mags ?? I need a mag loading tool to load them up.

I would check under the Golck section in the Handgun forum....I have had some good responses to questions pertaining to my G 30 there.

Have you smoothed out the flashing material inside of the mag tube?  I took two apart after having a tough time just getting 10 rounds in and found flashing all inside.  I scraped most of it out and they operated better - now I have them pre-loaded to see if it will 'loosen' up the spring tension somewhat.

Glocktalk.com should have some links for mag loaders.

Stiff at first.  Leave loaded for a while.  Will be just fine.

Is this a new Glock 17? I just picked one up about a month ago and I had to use the Mag loader the first 200-300 rounds.. The spring in the mag is very stiff, best thing to do is load up the mags and let them sit when you are not shooting the Glock 17 and they should brake in with in a few days..

Yeah, brand new mags can be pretty hard to load at full capacity without using some loading tool. I'm going to load mine up full as others are saying to break them in (I don't like using the speedloader the glock comes with).

I have always had trouble getting that last couple of rounds in.
just load in as much as you can and let it sit for a while, rotate and repeat.
