Description
The HEXMAG Series 2 for Glock 17 combines advanced carbon fiber composite technology with practical shooter-focused design. It's built to last through real-world use while staying light in your gear, and the material breaks away from the all-metal alternative with superior corrosion resistance and temperature tolerance.
Series 2 Carbon Fiber Construction and Reliability
This magazine uses HEXMAG's proprietary carbon fiber blend that delivers the strength of steel with all the benefits of polymer. The reinforced feed lips stand up to heavy use, while the heat-treated stainless steel spring resists fatigue from extended loaded storage. Field testing confirms the magazine maintains its shape under abuse, with feed lips and body staying true to form after years of regular rotation. The carbon fiber construction weighs less than metal alternatives while offering better performance in extreme temperatures.
HEXTURE-XTM Grip Pattern and Fast Reloading
The signature hexagonal HEXTURE-XTM pattern isn't just for looks. Those sharp ridges provide genuine tactile control, whether you're running dry hands or wearing gloves. The pattern grips fabric mag pouches reliably during fast draws while textured serrations on the front surface create quick indexing reference points for smooth reloads. Real-world use shows the grip texture holds its effectiveness even after months of regular handling in duty belts and competition gear.
Tool-Less Takedown and Maintenance
The magazine disassembles without any tools. Removing the baseplate takes seconds, letting you access the interior for quick cleaning and spring maintenance. It's a feature that makes sense since keeping mags clean directly impacts reliability. The stainless steel spring wipes down easily with a light oil, and the polymer parts clean up with basic soap and water. After reassembly, you're ready for the range without waiting for tools or special equipment.
Full-Size Body with Compliance Design
This 10-round version fits a standard Glock 17 body profile, so it sits naturally in your pistol and works with most existing magazine pouches. The magazine uses HEXMAG's patented True Riser System to achieve the reduced capacity while maintaining the full-length body appearance. It also includes round count witness holes on the side for quick visual ammo checks and comes standard with a red follower and latch plate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this 10-round magazine work with my Glock 19?
Yes, this magazine is compatible with the Glock 19 and several other Glock platforms including the 26, 34, 45, 47, and 49, as well as compatible aftermarket frames like Shadow Systems and Staccato models. The 10-round capacity remains the same across all compatible platforms.
How does the carbon fiber construction compare to standard polymer magazines?
HEXMAG's carbon fiber blend is lighter than metal alternatives while offering superior strength and corrosion resistance. It handles temperature extremes better than standard polymer and maintains its shape through heavy use. Real-world testing shows the feed lips and magazine body remain true to form after years of regular rotation.
Can I change the follower or latch plate color on this magazine?
This 10-round magazine comes standard with a red follower and latch plate and is not compatible with HEXMAG's end-user HEXID color change kits due to the restricted capacity design. Custom color options are available when ordering directly from HEXMAG, which will have them installed at the factory.
What's the deal with the HEXTURE grip pattern?
The HEXTURE pattern creates sharp ridges across the magazine body that provide genuine tactile control whether you're wearing gloves or using bare hands. The pattern also aids magazine retention in fabric pouches and helps during fast reloads. Serrations on the front of the magazine provide quick indexing reference points for smooth mag changes.
