It was actually pretty easy. Two months from start to finish and the premises inspection was a simple meeting.

My 01 FFL just showed up in today's mail

You know you want one (or two or three)

I have too many here and they've gotta go! Sale pricing is limited to units on-hand! http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?cPath=82&products_id=368

Shane, your words have helped me immensely. I have lusted for a 1-8X PMII since they were announced and though it would be PERFECT on a MWS however have yet to actually fondle one. Now that I know it's limitations, I'm perfectly happy designating one MWS for 0-300 with a TR24 and one for 300-800 with a fixed 10x

This reminds me that I've had my winter car in the garage for over a month now as I procrastinate and put off working on the cooling system (I HATE coolant). I've spent a fair bit of time busting knuckles and rubbing rust out of my eyes. Swapped a semi-built VQ35 into my 96 Maxima. Swapped the auto for a 5spd. Put a Quaife ATB LSD in that 5spd a year later. Suspension, brakes, complete interior swap. Fun times but sadly, I don't have the time nor the money to fund both cars and guns.

Glad you like 'em, guys!

Yep, that's the address. Just shoot me a tracking number when you ship them. Also, please include your return address, preferably typed, inside the package. Return addresses can get mangled by the courier.

Would LOVE to see this happen but 10mm is still a niche caliber

No problem; just give me a head's up when you ship 'em to me so I know to expect them.

The only tool you really need is the DPMS multi-tool. As a firearms owner, a good set of punches should already be in your toolbox anyway.

If you want to send the mags and followers to me, I'll get them swapped around. Depending on what they did with the followers, a new block may be necessary.

Thank you! Happy shooting!

You can however it won't run 100% reliably. There's a difference in the breech face and extractor as well as the OD of the barrel. Additionally, the 10mm slide has more internal reinforcement than the .45

Due to the seemingly infinite combinations of lower receiver manufacturers, LPK manufacturers, and upper receiver manufacturers, it's impossible to say that the mag will seat on a closed bolt due to tolerance stack-up. Since it's impossible to guarantee seating on a closed bolt, to stay on the safe side of things, the blocks are made large enough to make sure there's no way for a 16th round to be forced into the mag.

Glock 20! I built a long-slide on my G21SF frame and LOVE it! 10mm has fantastic external and terminal ballistics and with a G20, you get the Glock reliability to boot. 15+1 of supersonic 230gr hard cast makes for a great gun to go stomping around the woods with.

Yes but you have to replace the entire rear panel. I don't care for pressure pads because it takes ALOT of training to use them effectively.

Yep, have them shipped to me. Cost is $6/mag. I do this for Larue UDE mags all the time.

I highly suggest a TLR1. I ran one in the low/no-light segment of an EAG class and it did great. Everyone else ran Surefires but honestly, the 135 lumen TLR-1 held it's own just fine.

I can definitely modify them as I offer a modification service.

I don't know what BM's selling or if their mags are different (other than color) than what Magpul releases to the commercial market. As for older PMAGs, the only ones I have are personal ones. I sell tons of PMAGs so my inventory is constantly turning.

Oh and another interesting change that "wasn't" made: the follower no longer touches the feed lip in the new mags whereas in the 2009s, it did.

This isn't the first time I've heard of this happening (modified PMAG or not). If you could use a non-modified PMAG, you'd still have this problem. Magpul denies making any changes but I've compared my 2009 30rd PMAGs to current ones and the new PMAGs have less contact between the bolt catch and the follower. Some of my measurements show them to have as much as 0.6mm less contact between the bolt catch and the follower. It's a tolerance stack up issue between the PMAG, the lower, and the bolt catch of the LPK. When modifying the mag, I don't touch the follower or the spring hence my statement that you if you could use a non-modified PMAG, you'd still have this problem.

I still have my FOID as a reminder of the draconian laws I escaped not six months back. Lived about 10 miles south of Naperville too.

Are you shooting for groups or do you want to make fast hits on IPSC/IDPA style targets? I ask because I just built a MWS for 0-300yds and put a TR24 on it so the rifle would be effective at those ranges with a 50yd zero while sacrificing very little when shooting at 0-25 yards. But the TR24 being a 1-4x is completely ineffective for shooting tight groups. The other MWS that I have is being tasked with 300-800 yards with the same target in mind so a fixed 10x is likely what I'll be putting on it. See why intended use is such a big factor in glass selection?
