Glock concealment magwells, any experiencies?

Wish I had read the fine print on Magpul's Gen 3 G19 magwell, specifically the part that says it won't work with older generation magazines, which is 95% of what I have. Only newer gen mags will lock in.

Thanks for passing that along...was tempted to play with it at the price, but the incompatibility is a no-go.

While I'm still compiling info for the magwell post one thing is obvious, gen3 Magpul magwell doesn't accept many magazines.

Not an issue limited to the Magpul magwell; the RCS Freya also has problems with the older magazines. I had posted this in the 19M thread during a magwell digression.

I had an issue with older G19 magazines and the Raven Freya magwell - the magazine body would actually slightly twist when inserted into the pistol, just enough that the base pad would catch on the magwell.

Maybe a dumd question: With the Magpul Gen 3/4’s, could you remove protruding material from the front (right side in my case as a right handed shooter) to minimize the printing of the magwell when carryign AIWB, without ruining the magwell or it’s effectiveness?

Sure you can, sorta defeats a little bit of the purpose of the magwell tho...
