Will they fit my Generation #1 Glock Model 20? I certainly hope so.

I have no experience, but my understanding is that Gen 5 mags are no longer compatible with previous generations.  Gen 1-4 will work fine.

Ive got a Gen 5 G20 and the Gen 3 and 4 mags fit in the Gen 5 but i don't know if the Gen 5 mag will fit ok in a Gen 1. sorry.

I bought my Glock Model 20 a long time ago (about 1992). I just did a little research on Glock Talk and believe that they will fir my early pistol (It is probably Gen 2).

My magazines are due Thursday afternoon.

Well hope they work for you. Let us know how they work out.

Great news! I called Glock and they told me that The magazines will function perfectly. The only reason a Gen 5 Model 20 may not use the Gen 4 magazines is that they do not have the build that supports an ambidextrous safety "U". If the magazine's left-mounted Magazine release is moved to the right-hand side of the pistol's frame, the magazine will not seat in the pistol's frame.

End of story.

That's great information. Thanks for the update.
