Where does one start? Even having trouble loading the 10th bullet? I need coaching big time. Website? Manuals? Etc.?
Help appreciated.

Which platform? If its a G33 you might have trouble because its a 9rnd magazine.

Its stamped 31. The magazines show 10 site holes. Sorry, I do not know much about Glocks. Thanks ;Q

You have the full size .357 SIG. Sometimes the springs can be really stiff when they are new. Give them some time, and they'll work in.

My 10 round .357 mags are hard to load the 10th round also. I use G22 15 round mags that I have had for several years and use offten and I can get all the rounds in with no problem. 3 of my 4 G22 15 round mags will accept 16 rounds of the .357sig ammo. I fired these mags with 16 rounds at the range expecting some feeding problems but their were none. All 16 went down range but I don't CCW with 16 because it could be a problem at the worst possible time.

He said they have 10 viewing holes. My 13 rounders have 10 holes, I think the 10 rounders have 5 holes.

Be advised that at any time you could move into Glock Aquisition Syndrome, where you keep adding Glocks to your collection!

Same problems with the 12 round mags on my SIG P226 - just load and unload them a couple times and the springs will loosen up a tad.
