Two different mags with new 23

bennie1986 · 02-16-2013, 19:12

A few days ago i bought a new 23. It came with two mags but they are different. One has the 2 down by the glock symbol and the other does not. I was under the impression that the gun was NIB and the actual firearm looks like it was never fired. The other thing is that the gun has grease on it thats not the copper stuff from the factory. What do yall make of this?

Why are you asking us & not the person you bought it from?

Forgot to mention it was a LGS and they are closed.

I can see the grease thing but I would thing the factory would put the same mags in.

Glock is known for using copper grease from the factory. As for the different magazines the dealership must've swapped...

Are both of the magazines 13 round mags? I believe the ones with the 2 are gen 4 mags that will work with the release on the left, or right side. The others will not.

Yes both are 13 but regardless you would think they would ship the same mags.

Is the gun a gen 3 or 4? If they are both factory Glock mags I wouldn't worry about it.

Sorry RICHARD.

You lost any assistance offered.

I would be concerned, that could be some kind of return from another customer which may have tried his hand at some gunsmithing. between the different mags and no copper grease something is up. there was a thread started a while back when a gun went off without pulling the trigger. it was believe that it was a return if I'm not mistaking.

The gun you bought had to of been a used Glock. The reason why I say this is your Glock was made sometime in 2010 there is no way it set on a gun shop self this long.

^^^ yep ive got a gen3 23 PNK*** and ive had it a couple years now. Id bet the newer mag (with 2) was put in the box cause when it was sold back to the shop it only had one

I see in your post you say that you was under the impression it was new. that statement implies you were never told it was a new gun. you bought a used gun, what did you pay?
