Glock Marine Cups - Well, I'll go ahead and admit that I have them in both of my Glocks. But...it's one of those "seems like a good idea at the time" things.
What do I think? I can't tell you. The two G's work as well as my others, but I guess it's a waste of money. Thankfully, it's less than $10 (a little over $4 each), but these days, that's money. However, I suspect that if the gun is too wet, I may have an advantage over someone without a gun. Don't know the truth.
Glock Marine Cups
I know you can do a five cent spring cup job at your OEM, but I think you're better off getting a spear and snorkel.
Glock 19x To Be Released January 22
I'm going to add here that I'm completely ignoring most of the crap they fire at us Glockers in the name of "improvement". Personally, my opinion is that it's all chicken fat.
Nothing against sea cups, but why use them? My G35 (LE trim) has sea cups installed. Used by the Louisiana State Police SWAT team. If they come out, I don't plan to replace them with another sea glass.
I do. They serve their purpose very well. Unfortunately, the rest of the Glock guns have issues with water and sand, and don't have "Ocean" or "Ocean" trigger housings to deal with that.

Mine is from Georgia and police traded. I installed the clips because I wanted to see if they did what the glock said. Glock was straight on this one, shot it for 30 minutes in golf, after cleaning the gun the FP port was clean and the FP worked fine.
Plumbum2 says: Seems like a waste of $18 or whatever absurd dollars the world is spending on a fraction of plastic...click to expand...they used to be cheap but I totally agree with such a small price portion. .. However, maybe they should be considered upgrades, I guess we pay more for upgrades...

I've carried them in G19 and G17 suitcases and have never had any issues over thousands of cycles.
I have nothing against them, but all my Glock pistols have standard cups and they have never failed. I don't see myself owning a gun if I need one.
They don't do any harm if you want to install them, and I agree with others that they are considered stock options. If you like the idea of your batter having special combinations, go for it.
Officially, from a Glock Armourer's point of view, sea cups don't last very long and often fail.
New Back Plate For My Glock 43x. Just Need Night Sights!
I can attest that a wet Glock that has been in contact with water will burn very well. These cups are used for underwater shooting. During my scuba lessons I found out that the brass on my face "from repeat gun to perpetrator" broke my mask so you don't use it.
I have a g17 and this is my shotgun. Needless to say, I have about 3 Glock coins inside. The gun itself has a lot going for it and recently had the channel liner put back on it. Decided it was time to replace the gauge ports and the plastic components wrapped from assembly and teardown. The soup cups looked battered, so I decided to replace the entire assembly. I'm using a Jager beater and I wonder what the hell is going on here. I thought I'd give sea urchins a chance since they have fewer spawning grounds. Are they different? IDK, not that I really feel it, but I'm in the process of replacing all the plastic in there, so I figured I might as well spend a few bucks on sea cups.
The cover is just a protective measure, similar to the principle of shooting a Glock stock, because the manufacturer designed it that way. Nobody talks about underwater shooting and gimmicks like that, the slimmer cup profile allows for free movement of water, air, dirt and anything that gets into the FP channel, which supposedly adds to the reliability of this part of the gun. Would a Glock without a cap fire without a problem - I'm pretty sure I have them because I'm looking for more reliability - no. I just wanted to give it a try because I'm tired of urban legends and such and such...
You only need an inch of water and less than 10 seconds to fill your gun with water. The odds of a soldier dropping a gun on the sidewalk are slim to none? Who can guarantee that the gun will still work normally after this time? Having these mugs is a protective measure that eliminates the possibility of things happening before they happen. Glock makes it standard on the G17 Pro, which must be why it...
For Glock 17 Ghost Turbo Maritime Spring Cups New !
(the knife is there for me to find if it's buried in the sand, pop in, slide to lock)
After five minutes or so, the airbrush is completely dry. Rinse it with the same golf water for about 5-10 minutes, even before pressing the magazine release button or slide release button. After 10 minutes in the shower, the action and triggers start to move. The gun has no issues with the FP moving, engaging or not, the real problem is the lift housing - there's so little space in there that it takes up most of the flush before it gets there after the slide is released space. Most of the sand is out and won't work reliably. Total time from flushing to gun operation (without actually firing) was less than 10 minutes. Parts take a long time to loosen and work: slide and magnetic release buttons and slide locks, shake vigorously underwater for 5+ minutes before moving any parts...
The picture below is the state of the gun after my field shooting on the second day. The only part that didn't work reliably was the safety tab, I've since replaced the trigger lever.
The gun was "noisy" because of the sand left in it, but it did the job for 2-3 mags, I didn't push it any further because I didn't want to push it any further...

All I had to do was get wet on SHTF day with nothing but a rock by my side.
I don't remember how much I paid for them...I would say: $8...?
The whole "test" wasn't intentional in the first place, but it seemed like a good opportunity to see how the two guns fared in that situation. The other gun in the picture is my Sig x5. Both guns go into service at about the same time: 10-12 minutes, but the Sig has less internals around the first set and works a bit faster than the G22 (3-4 minutes).
ShallNotBeInfringed says: Legally, sea cups don't last very long from a Glock armorer's perspective, and they tend to fail. That's why they are not in all Glock pistols. I forgot the duty cycle, but it was about 2,000 rounds for me. sent from my Rotary wall phone Click to expand... I have sea cups with 75K rounds in them with no visible wear. It's okay if you don't want to use them, but don't post B/S when people come looking for real information.
