I have tried and tried and I am now convinced that I will never get 9 rounds into the 9rd g30 mag. I got close once and I now think that it actuall opened up the feed lips farther on the mag and now i'm not sure if it will shoot ok or not. When I took the mag apart and look at the room for the spring from th ebottom after I had loaded 9rds into it, I 'm not kidding there is like absolutley no room at all in the mags bottom for the spring to fit into.
Do any of you have a 9 rounder that actually holds 9 rounds and functions well.
I've never had a problem getting 9 in the 9 rounder. I also was always able to get 10 in the 10 rounder; however, with 10 in the 10 rounder, I had problems seating the mag. I've had no problems seating the mag with 9 in the 9 rounder.
I dont have the 9 round mags but I can only fit 9 in one of my 10 round mags. when I went to the range . I unloaded all 10 from my other one and when reloading my carry mag the 10th round wouldnt fit, I had to unload it and reload it a few times before the 10th one would fit. I did notice during all this is if you look real close inside they dont always stagger properly and the next to last round wont stagger over enough to let the last round in. I smacked it against the range table after every couple rounds and this seemed to help them settle a little better.. I hope this helps.

I've had problems getting Glock mags filled to full capacity in different models.I was unable to get the last 2 in one mag at first.I've had the best luck of just leaving them loaded for a couple of weeks and trying again.The last round will usually fit then.I've never had a Glock mag that wouldn't fill up all the way after a lil time and thumb wear.

I can.
I can. The 9rnd mag I got from Top Glock loads 9 just fine, the 10rnd is another story. I think that the issue is with the follower.

It took a little time, but after loading/unloading/loading/unloading the magazine with 8 rounds, the spring eventually softened up enough to slip that 9th round in. I would not suggest preforming any modifications to your magazine...especially if you plan on using it for SD.
