    What is the closest Pa, De, or Va show where I’d have a good chance of getting some of the Shield 15 rd mags that fit the slim Glocks? (Hyper-detailed, I know. Just couldn’t figure a better way to ask)

    The Gettysburg show is this weekend.


    There is usually a good assortment of mags, including one vendor who sells nothing but. Appropriately, his sign says 'Mag Man'. If you go, you'll usually find him at the front of the room on the left as you enter. He has LOTS of mags... at least 8 or 10 tables worth. He normally occupies an entire row, both sides.

    I have no idea if he carries the shield mags specifically, since I don't own any Glock pistols. I do know he has a huge selection, including a full table or two of Glock mags that I've seen in the past, and I've bought SIG, CZ and Mec Gar mags at decent prices.

    Do you know if Mag Man is likely to be at the Nations Gun Show in Dulles in a couple of weeks? I want to pick up some FAL and M14 mags but I don't think I can get to Gettysburg this weekend.

    I have no idea what's coming in future shows, I don't work for any promoter or vendor, I'm just observing and reporting what I've seen at past shows.

    I rarely go to the Dulles shows anymore, the PA shows are a much more enjoyable drive from Carroll Co... so I can't even say if he regularly attends that show.

    I've picked up the Shield 15 rounders at both shows-- In Gettysburg from the MagMan and at the last Dulles show there were several (at least 4) venders w/the Shield mags... but shop around because the prices were substantially different.

    I always have good luck at the Dulles/Chantilly show. They always had the Shield 15 rounders for the 43x/48 platform. The price was about $1-2 less than I found online which was a surprise.

    Are you going to replace the steel mag catch too? I did it but I had to move away from the OEM mags afterwards.

    Good luck.

    If the guy is in his usual spot at Gettysburg, walk in the hall, go left, end of the isle on the right. Prices aren't the deal of the century, but not horrific.
