    Glock 19 gen3 question...

    Did they change the hand grip angle on these to fit the gen 4 mags? Reason I ask I just unjailed a new gen 3 19 and my preban 17 mags will work but are at a different angle slightly then my 19 gen 4 mags that came with the new pistol. I had a 19 years ago (gen 3) but sold it, I just don't remember my 17 mags not fitting exact (won't drop free). I tried to do a search but came up with nothing. I have 3 standard capacity mags for my old 19 somewhere but I am afraid they will be messed up too.

    No angle difference. Mags interchangeable.

        No angle difference. The only thing different between Gen 3 and Gen 4 magazines is that the Gen 4s have a notch for the magazine catch on both sides of the magazine for the ambidextrous release.

              Well, the weird thing is my gen 2 17 mags fit better in this gen 3 19 but the gen 3s I got with my gen 3 17 won't drop free when empty. They will cycle rounds fine just won't drop. I have to do the pistol shake to get them out. Yet drop free from both my gen 2 and 3 17s. Just freaking weird all around but all is well. I found the gen 2 19 mags (pre-ban) I had and they have the same angle and drop free. Hitting up oak tree tomorrow so I will know more then.
