    Worn spring in Glock17 magazine

    One of my Glock17 mags has a worn spring and I am anxious to replace it before using it much more. It feeds the first 15 round well enough buy gets a bit touchy with the final few.

    Who in the Sacramento/Roseville area (with an actual storefront) sells rebuild kits or mag parts?

      get in the habit of replacing your mag springs on a schedule - they're inexpensive, cheap insurance.

      Try Wolff as the other poster suggested.
      The way some gunshop clerks spout off, you'd think that they invented gunpowder and the repeating rifle, and sat on the Supreme Court as well.

        I appreciate the input, but the stated purpose of my question was to find a local dealer selling parts.

          Over the years I've had -0- luck in finding any local dealers (other than at gun shows) that sell mag springs for anything, and took my business for that product to first the mail order dealers, and then to the 'net.

          ymmv.

            X2 on wolf. Have them in all my glock mags. Even left fully loaded after months will still push up the slide catch. When I do order some I just order extras so I always have some. Like B Strong said, it is just cheap insurance.

              Why not order them through the mail - - I just replaced all of my GLock 17 magazine springs and could not be more pleased.

                Buy Wolf springs...

                The fate of the wounded rest in the hands of the ones who apply the first dressing.
