Thanks for sharing that. Just last weekend I picked up 2, 17 mags and the spacers. I haven’t tried them yet but the next time I get the loading bench up and working I’ll make myself half dozen rounds without powder or primers and see if I can reproduce that failure.
I have put thousands of rounds through my 26 with a lot of multiple rapid rounds fired with the 10 Glock mags I own and have never had a failure. But I’ve never tried a 17 or 19 in this gun. The attached photo shows the 17 mag and extension, the fit from the photo looks poor but in the hand it feels tight with no movement of the mag to the grip frame.
You can bet that mine will see numerous boxes of rounds before I trust the gun with them.
