Glock Magazine Dust Cover

Does anyone make a dust cover for Glock magazines similar to the ones used on AR or AK magazines? If so, where can I purchase them?

Thanks in advance.....

I'm not being a smart aleck - educate me. I'm an old guy and don't have ARs or AKs - don't have a Glock either but am familiar with what the magazines are.

Why the need for a "dust cover"? I'm assuming due to conditions you are carrying in? I'm just thinking off the top of my head hear but I've never needed a dust cover on a handgun magazine if I'm carrying in a mag pouch were it is protected. Obviously, I'm not seeing something on this?

Appreciate the whys and whatfors . . . never to old to learn something. Thanks.

No problem.

When I CC, I have a pocket dedicated to carry a spare magazine. I use a small UM pocket holster for the mag, but I would like something that will protect the feed lips more securely. Also, I plan to get a Ruger PCC in the future with a buttstock mag pouch. I want the same mag protection there as well....just like the AR & AK mags have. I sometimes use a BLACKHAWK! polymer mag carrier, but it's too bulky for pocket carry or belt carry.

Most mag pouches have the magazines feedlips down inside the puch. It's not super easy for dirt to get in the mags that way.

Here's one company that carries magazine covers for various pistols including Glocks.
