Magazine Question

[Matt nelson]

So I was wandering if this is normal, I've had some guns do it and others don't, but when I fully load my mag, if you shake it sometimes it will rattle, is that an issue or normal? It fires perfect, just has a rattle in the mag if you shake it, just something I've been wanting to know

I've been perplexed by this as well. Hasn't mattered the brand / model / etc. - Glock, SIG, Wilson Combat for 1911s - I've had the random rattle with them all.

But, NO failures related to them.

Just seems to be "one of those things..."

I believe it is one of those things lol, talked to a fellow tonight and he said the same, didn't matter what brand when he loaded his mags some of them had a rattle, but just like you said, it's been flawless, no failures what so ever, mabey their just made to do that

I did get in the habit of numbering my mags a while back; read that somewhere and thought it sounded like a good idea.

I take a paint pen usually and number them on the base plates. Helps me remember to rotate my carry mags periodically and to "track" if a certain mag starts giving any trouble at the range, etc.
