Obtuse Mag Holder

prusaprinters

Much thanks to Reagantoby27 for helping me redesign and test the evolution from V1 to V3 and all its variants.Holds a mag, at an angle.Designed off of Glock 9mm mags, not sure what else it will fit. It "should" fit SW40 and 357 as well.Inspired by the Recovery Tactical MG9 Angled Mag Pouch.***Inside of the magwell in V3 & V3.1 are a series of bumps that can be sanded down if your magazines fit a little too tightly.Variants:V3: All in one package, just print V3 and Clamp. Its good enough.V3.1: Has removable mag catch tabs. Print V3.1, the Tabs and Clamp. Tabs can be replaced if worn out or broken, can also be adjusted with a little heat for more or less clamping force. I have included blank tabs in case you want to customize your own tabs.V3.2: Has an actual mag release to ensure mags cannot fall out. Print V3 MagLock, Mag Release and Clamp. The Mag Release can be reversed and used from either side of the grip depending on personal preference.Hardware:1x M4x30mm bolt and nut for picatinny mounting on all versions2x M3x8 or 9 or 10mm bolt and nut for V3.1 tabs1x Glock Magazine Catch Spring (38mm x 0.055"/1.3mm piano wire) for V3.2My print settings:*I have pre-oriented all of the parts to what I think will give you the best results, but you know your printer best.50% gyroid infill, 6 walls, 5 top & bottom, supports onHistory:V1: Original release with fixed tabs and no clamp piece to properly grip picatinny rails.V2: Attempted to fix the short comings of V1 at the request of Reagantoby27. Results were not satisfactory or even completely functional. V3: As a result of the short comings of V2, Reagantoby27 and I heavily redesigned the tabs to make them work out of the box. The picatinny mount was switched from a fixed design to having a removable clamp piece that gripped picatinny rails for a more secure fit. We also added friction bumps inside the magwell that can easily be sanded down to adjust for a tighter or more loose fit on the magazines. The front hook was also narrowed down. Reagantoby27 is also responsible for the idea to have a version with an actual mag catch in it so that no tuning would be necessary for a secure fit.Bonus:I have included "V3.2-Mag_Release-NegativeCavity.step" in these files. It can be used to create other mag holders using the reversible mag release from this release. It should work for glock frames but then they could not take stock mag releases. Update 07/26/2024:Added V2 (reinforced tabs) STL and STEP.Update 08/06/2024:Added V3, V3.1 & V3.2
