Nope, this is not true. The dies for KSC magazines still show the Glock trademark. And the die for the G34...welllits a work of art. Any ways the base plates no longer show the Glock logo, but there is a die stamp.
Even the Chinese clones have Glock trades die stamp. What is a better clue if its a real KSC magazine is the finishing.
Here is a 49 rounder that is compared between the two from my post on ASB.

I know better, but I had to go and order 18 of these magazines.
I got them very inexpensively. I randomly picked up one and they are mediocre at best.
QC - What Quality Control? Files and Sharpies is how we will do QC!
The picture says it all, cast marks, poorly machine/cast components.
Which one is the KSC?
The "Right" one.

Negative Issues with the China Clone KSC Glock long mag:
Seam lines - Magazine were cast quickly and poorly. There is no finishing other then the anodizing and a sharpie ink on parts they had to file after the anodizing.
Poor Seals - Base plate leaked on the one I picked up, a minor hiss from the base plate seal. Water test showed a one bubble in ~2.5 second count.
Feed spring is to long - Which prevents one from locking the follower down to load the bb's. You have to manually hold the follower down as you load the bb's.
No o-ring on the fill valve - This is really not an issue with me...but some people maybe venting gas as they try and fill this mag with propane adapters.
The base cap is made of a cheaper more brittle plastic.
Magazine cool down - It will not empty the entire Magazine with consistent velocity. Last 10 shots are weak and velocity is down.
Positives about the Clone magazine:
It's cheap at 3/5 the price shipped of a KSC magazine.
It fits in all the KSC Glocks.
There you have it in a nutshell.
Any questions or things you want me to inspect on the magazine?
Of the 18 that I have, I have inspected 11 and 8 of them have leaks for finishing issues.

As for the troubling magazine, did you do the pin valve test?
