Sentry Products Group is now making Hexmag magazines for Glock pistols.  And they’re sexy!

In a scene more reminiscent of Hollywood than real life, Officer William Umana of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department can be seen exchanging over 60 rounds of gunfire with two men suspected of fleeing the scene of a homicide.
