What manufacturers sell magazines that are easy to disassemble into all of its components for the sake of cleaning? I'm thinking of some common brands like Glock, S&W, and sig, .i.e. , guns on the California handgun roster that are available in the 9mm. I'd also like to know if you have any specific information regarding the possibility of disassembly for magazines that are of the 10/20 and 10/30 versions too if you happened to know that.

Question about magazines

Glock OEM are easy if you have the mag. disassembly tool.
Are you asking about non-OEM versions as well?
Edit:
I just looked at the Mec-Gar mags for my CZ 75 SP-01.
They look similar to the Glocks with a push button release, but I have not disassembled them yet (too new).Last edited by Garv; 04-13-2020, 11:16 AM.Originally posted by Kestryll:

Yeah for the non-OEM mags too, but only the ones that are absolutely reliable. Like go bang every timeComment

springfield xd mags are easy to take apart, I have 10s and 16s
10/20 and 10/30? are you trying to rebuild an illegal AR mag? lol"It is currently CA legal to modify a double-action revolver into a single-action revolver and modify a single-action revolver into a double-action revolver.
CA DOJ BOF stance on modifying handguns only applies to dimensionally compliant bolt-action single-shot pistols and dimensionally compliant break-open single-shot pistols.
^It does not apply to revolvers, manually operated repeating pistols, and semi-auto pistols." ~~ QuietComment

Glock magazine's are difficult with only a common punch, because of the extra side tabs. Someone had to invent a tool, just to make disassembling it easier.
1911 magazine with the welded bottom are not quick, but easy.
Other than those, most of the on-roster are pretty much the same. Punch the base plate and base pad slides out easily.
I don't think one is magazine more reliable than another. From single vs double stack, follower and spring tension, not sure we can say one magazine is more reliable than another as they are gun specific. If I had to jab at one, there was probably a bad batch of Glock 9mm followers at one point, as that comes up here and there.Comment

You've never had any ProMags for any gun, have you?

. Great example, right there. I was pretty much only talking about on-roster factory magazines.
