With how affordable and inexpensive Glock OEM mags are, and even more so with Magpul brand Glock magazines, I can't imagine cheaping out even more for even less quality

I tried the first round of Korean mags ... fit Glocks fine.. function like crap, glad I only bought 4 of them so it was a cheap lesson. They do work in Kel Tec Sub 2K so not a total loss.
After MagPul recalled and replaced all their first try at Glock mags a few years ago, they have functioned perfectly.
Best after market mags for Glocks are ETS ... half the price of OEMs and more durable. I use only authentic Glock mags in carry guns, I figure they know a thing or two about optimum performance. Magpul and ETS have never failed to feed on the range or hunting. Glock thinks a lot of its mags.. doesn't discount them. Dealers have to absorb any price reductions in sales. I've got a lot of $17. ETS Happy Sticks.

"Good enough" in terms of function is not the only issue for civilian carry. It is widely believed that use of aftermarket parts and modifications other than, say night sights -- no matter how functionally practical they may be -- can be manipulated by opposing legal counsel to weaken legal defense in the hopefully unlikely event that armed self-defense results in the self-defender facing legal charges. Hence best to stick with OEM mags for carry.

Your argument has merit, but I chose to digress. Opposing legal counsel will do everything and anything in order to weaken your case and throw some doubt into a Jury's mind. The fact that you may have changed out a connector, or a trigger or polished some internals will not matter if its a bad shoot. In a good shoot, all of the aforesaid is defensible with the right expert(s) providing supporting testimony...
