On Wet Glocks, from a friend who is an engineer:

"All polymers absorb moisture and expand as a result, to one degree or another. In fact, plastic pellets used in molding, must go through a dryer to remove moisture before being melted, lest they explode like popcorn .

I'll bet rain-induced expansion, combined with suction, made those South-African Glock magazines stick in the magazine well to a greater degre e than expected."
