Still not giving up my Shield mags in my 43 X……
Nope.^^^^. Do you expect perfection from PSA’s first release mags for a Glock clone?
I'm hoping.I buy PSA products, but they seem to always have issues with new releases that take a second generation to fix. The Dagger was clearly an example of that. But I guess the mini Dagger and their own mags will be perfect. I hope the mini isn’t another launch like the original…
I’m starting to wonder about your ability to understand the written language. I never said that Shield Arms was clear about the mag release when they first came out. But that it was clear, but reading about what people using them were saying.Nope. If I did I would have believed Shield Arms and their claim that a metal mag catch wasn't needed.
But we know that wasn't accurate don't we?
Yet in this thread there are 3 out of 11 that report issues with their Shield S15 mags....are they lying?
As far as knowledge, you wrote "they were very clear about the mag release and how to avoid problems..."..........which is simply untrue. Shield itself advertised that the aluminum mag catch wasn't needed except for higher volume shooters.
Seems I know more about the Shield mags than you.
3 out of 11 buyers in this thread had issues..........them aint good numbers.

I quoted you exactly sir.I’m starting to wonder about your ability to understand the written language. I never said that Shield Arms was clear about the mag release when they first came out.
Apparently I know more about the problems with the Shield mags than you want to hear. It threatens your self esteem, makes you doubt your life choices and now you are losing confidence in your decision to buy Shield mags.But that it was clear, but reading about what people using them were saying.
I’m not sure who made the aluminum mag releases for SA. I went with what was recommended by people that actually used SA magazines , and bought the one by Hyve.
But I do have to say, for someone that doesn’t have any SA magazines, you have posted more in this topic then anyone else.
No I didn't say that at all. What I wrote was "As far as "first hand knowledge"...I also don't have first hand knowledge that a Lamborghini will outrun a Ford F150 om I-35. But I believe that story. I'm blessed with the common sense to understand that first hand knowledge isn't always the best knowledge."You also say that first hand knowledge is not as good as reading about something.
So do I........and 3 out of 11 people in this thread HAVE THAT FREAKING FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE!!!!!I’ve heard that before by people that think they are smarter than others. I prefer getting information from someone with firsthand knowledge then someone that just thinks they know what they are talking about.
I literally don't care whether you personally know anyone. But when the manufacturer obviously knows they have problems and 3 of 11 in this thread state that they had problems dismissing them because "the internet" is foolish.I’ve never said that no one has ever had problems with SA magazines, just that I don’t know anyone personally that has. But then I don’t count the people I know on the internet either.
Exactly. And that "someone" is Shield Arms.But when it gets right down to it, you really don’t know anything about SA magazines other then what you have read about or what someone has told you.
wait....you complain about my reading ability? .....eleven people in this thread DIDN'T SAY THAT. Eight said they worked fine, three told of issues. That's a bit over 27% who have had issues and isn't by any definition "pretty good odds". It's actually pretty pathetic.But here you have 11 people saying they haven’t had any trouble and only three saying they have. But if I remember right, one said that they overcame the problem. That’s pretty good odds in my book.
So what?It might be another year or so before the Micro Dagger hits the market, and then another two or three years before you make up your mind to try the magazines or the gun.

I'm starting to wonder about YOUR ability to read and understand the written language. Its either you misunderstanding or intentionally misquoting in a lame attempt at an argument.
So do I........and 3 out of 11 people in this thread HAVE THAT FREAKING FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE!!!!!

So what?
I would rather wait for reliability than jump on a product that has 27% issues.
I could. I do a better job of fact checking than anyone they have.You should get a job at the new york times. They also write stories about anecdotes they read on the internet.

And BTW, you are an anecdote as well.
Your internet post is anecdotal for the rest of us, therefore in Gunnys opinion not valid.its not an anecdote when you witnessed it Does using emoji’s make me look clever?

Unwatching this thread.
I also have a better sense of humor.
I’ve never had a problem with my self esteem.
I don’t doubt choices I’ve made in life, but looking back, I probably could have done better when it came to picking wives.
And I haven’t lost confidence in my decision to buy SA magazines. I owne five of them and use them in my EDC.
But before this topic, I did hold your opinion a little higher. What I have learned is that you think you are smarter then those you disagree with.
