I bought 2 of the drop-free 13-rnd mags a while back for my Glock 23, and on purpose only kept 12 rounds in them to save the spring. I now figure, springs are cheap, just fully pack them. They've been loaded with 12 for at least a year.
I've got strong hands and thumbs, and have good loading technique, and never use one of those plastic loading helpers (though I've got one). For the life of my I haven't been able to load the last round in either magazine. Even tried the helper tool yesterday, but it wouldn't budge it.
Finally, after 2 days of seriously trying, I got it in - and without using the helper tool!
Now get this, I then slam the mag into the gun, and it doesn't seat. I slam it again hard, and nada. So, I did the chest press with a hand on either side, and forced it in.
Will there be any functioning problem with the round so tight up against the slide?
