Really wish Glock would just offer a factory extension for the 43x
Lets see if GLOCK makes changes now that Gaston has passed.
I’d like them to make mags like Psa n shield arms 15 flus or even 17 like the hellcat
Why an extension when it clearly can fit the 15 rounds flush? Glock dropped the ball on this one
I agree, just come out with a 15 round polymer mag and be done..
Red tape
Visited the Glock store on Wednesday 1/3/24 and got upgrades done to two 43x pistols. Was hoping to meet Lenny and see the machine shop but could not do either.
In the end the upgrades done to the pistols work great and I appreciated all the help we received while there.
He violated his rule on no rounds on table or in the room while working on a gun.....his concealed pistol mag had live rounds, as seen at 6:32
Great product. This will be a big upgrade for every 43x’s out there including mine. Thanks! ❤
I remember when you had DVD's for sale. LOL. That was a couple decades ago, at least. What a journey.
Thank you for sharing this information
I've got a 20 round magazine for the G43X using a PSA Micro Dagger mag with an Excess Arms +5 extension.
Nice video help me out understanding the mag
test your gear, SA mags have run perfect for me. i trust my life with them. if you don't feel confident in them, don't use them. i had my doubts. i told myself even 1 jam up and i will add the gun to my range safe and go back to my 19. i'm still using the 43x and love it. not to mention the metal mag release is much nicer to use, and looks good in my opinion.
I loved the look of the +5 (and have 2 as backup/range mags), but I liked the lower profile of the OG S15 for weight when carrying. With a mag well the OG looked a little out of place, but with this +3 extension it’s literally perfect! Carries good, looks gooder! Highly recommend!
Thank for the goodie’s tips
They have now the S15+5 I just got mine!!
No Problems in my Glock 43X and my 48 with Shield arms S15 Gen2 AND Gen3 Mags.
i have 7 Mags with no extension, +2 and +5 extensions
Not one failure to feed or failure to extract since i have both Glock converted. All in all i have shot 1000 rounds in both.
Shield arms offer a plus 2 and a plus 5 extension
My experience too. I believe those who talk about problems, but I’ve experienced zero.
@@lornenoland8098did you guys add any lube or extra to the magazine or gun to prevent?
I got the PSA 15-round mags. I've only shot about 100 rounds through them, but so far so good. I'll shoot 1k rounds through them before I replace the stock mags for carry.
Check imside the mags for extra plastic.flashing. lots of complaints about that.
Gonna invest in the +3 extension for my g48
crazy i remember when the whole micro 9 trend started and I had the original shield, then i got
the glock 42 with 6 rounds of 380 lol now you can carry almost 20 rounds of 9 concealed, crazy
Game changer. It’s just the recoil vs my G19. But it is a good option
The 10 round thing is one of the reasons it sells so well since it’s legal in probably every state.
Not in California since it doesn't have a loaded chamber indicator and a magazine disconnect "safety".
I think the freedom loving states are more important when it comes to gun sales.
Not😂
It has a loaded chamber indicator, just like all Glocks. Here is a clue, it is on the extractor and can be felt in the dark.
Yeah sadly I can’t legally buy anything that has more than 10 rounds
After all 986 generations of the shield mags I made the switch to PSA micro dagger mags and haven't looked back
Dude but they’re always out of stock lol
Are they more reliable? I don’t have experience with either but if heard bad things about shield.
@@JoseMartinezcdgnot anymore..they’re always im stock now go check it out I’m sure you’ll be able to get plenty now. I just ordered 4 of em..2 all black and 2 two tone ones 👌🏽
That’s what I’m running on my 43xMOS…no need to change the mag release either to a metal one…They run flawlessly..never going back to the shield arms 15RD mag 👌🏽
@@BigJitt813 yeah I’m thinking bout getting a few, shield arms is always taxing for no reason and you have to really get the metal
Mag release that’s kinda gay
I got the 45 gen 5
Was debating picking up the 43x next
I have both Gen 2 and Gen 3 Shield Arms magazines and I have the SA +5 extensions. I carry the +5 as a spare magazine. Pretty cool because that makes the spare mag a 20 rnd magazine. I find no problem with the magazine size and it’s really not that much bigger than your +3 extension.. Also, it might have been good to mention that when using the Shield Arms magazines, SA recommends the use of their steel mag catch because the steel body magazines will eat up the factory plastic mag catch or any aluminum mag catches, which will cause the magazine catch to fail…
Glad to see someone is still betting their life on SA mags. To each their own .
@@kellz8854 If you went through the 1000s of rounds and the torture testing I did on all my mags, then you might have a different opinion. Or maybe not…
I use a belt fed 43x
Will this extension work with the PSA 15 round magazine?
Will this work with the palmetto state 15rnd mag?
Will this extension work if the PSA dagger magazines for the Glock 43x ?
Does this work with the PSA Micro Dagger mags?
Just got mine. On a fully loaded mag, are the rounds supposed to shake around and make a little noise? I haven’t tested them for reliability yet but thought it was odd since there was no rattling as a standard 15 rd SA mag.
PSA makes a great 15 rd mag for the 43x/48 and you don’t have to swap the mag release
I could listen to Lenny talk for house about Glock stories
I love watching these fever dreams as a California slave
Move to Tennessee
Glock Perfection for me came with the Gen 4 Glock 26. Twice. I added the PG-26 grip extensions with the LG-436 and a TLR-6, but If I'm gonna' add 3 rounds to a mag I'm gonna' add a new spring too, if you know what I mean.
SLR rifle works makes a +5 for the 26, i got one on mine. Looks and feels nice
@@brimith
That's sounds worth the review. I generally EDC with a back up mag with a PG-26 grip extension on it.
wonder if the extensions will fit psa mags
how about a 32 super carry 43X? or something similar sized with 5.7x28? (longer grip and length of pull, I know)
Lead times at the Glock Store are always so long 😔 I’m finally getting my package today after 3 weeks. SMH, I’m excited to install this extension
This guy is hilarious brother haha
Is it necessary to replace the magazine release catch in the stock 43X mos with a metal release catch since the shields 15 rd magazine is metal instead of plastic?
I have the PSA mags. Have had zero problems with them.
Are there any extensions like this for them?
@@PA_hunter haven’t seen any. Haven’t looked either though. 15 is enough for me
Need a better spring than the stock one. Not enough tension to chamber last few rounds. Had to rack the slide to feed last few rounds.
Sir i notice when your trying to release your mag with 18 rounds, looks like the release/ejection is not easy/smooth?
What about the PSA mags?
A bit off topic, sorry, but whats the brand and model of the watch on your wrist? Best regards.
Can you add these extensions to a PSA micro magazine?
I was never sold on the 43x but this is tempting now.
The 43x is an awesome carry piece. I personally find the traditional Glocks like the 19 & 26 to be too thick & not as concealable
@@raulsanchez4493yeah I have a g23 and it’s a little chunky. I only carry it in colder weather when I’m wearing a hoodie or jacket. The rest of the time I used to carry an old M&P 9c 3.5 but now I’ve moved on to a hellcat since it’s higher capacity but still slimmer and lighter.
Would this work with a psa micro dagger 15 round mag ?
That extension also fits the micro dagger mag??
did you have to change out you mag release?
I wonder if shield arms can do the same thing with other Glock magazines as far as increasing capacity by 50%. Like having a Glock 19 with a flush 24 rnd mag or 15 rnds in a Glock 26
If anyone isn’t familiar with the Palmetto Micro Dagger 15 round mag from Palmetto State Armory. It’s there 15 round mag for the Glock 43X and you don’t need to change your mag catch with the mag. It’s all straight polymer and runs smooth. This mag is a lot more reliable and doesn’t have any failures. It is a huge game changer.
I’ve seen reports of issues with some PSA mag users.
You will notice the extra weight but for a purse or a vehicle gun clever engineering.
good video
Will that plus 3 extension work on the 43X OEM (factory) ?????
Glock needs to make the slide release ambidextrous for this gun
After the extension was put on and fully loaded with the dummy rounds, the magazine did not drop free when he hit the mag release. He had to forcefully yank it out. I also question the reliability.
If Shield Arms made a 10 round mag for Glock 42 sales would go through the roof for both! Idk why they haven’t done it yet.
Pitching the Shield Mag and plus three extension and drops a factory loaded mag from his EDC, not the best timing to say you do not trust anything but OEM, lol.
Hello Mr. Magill. Do you have a flat face trigger for the G21 gen 5. The stock trigger blade is doing some damage to my finger 😂😂.
Are the 43x slides dark grey now? 🤔
Can we use this extension with the stock factory mags?????
Would this extension fit on one of the new PSA 15 round magazines?
I bought the promag 15 round mags. Jambed on the first try. Just ordered the PSA micro dagger mags. They just came back in stock. We shall see. For my g43x by The way.
The PSA mags work great and no need to change the mag release.
My psa mags worked fine until about 250 rds then they just stop working I really wanted them to work I know others have had good luck but I just can't trust aftermarket mags anymore I'm fine with the oem.
My PSA mags have been 100% reliable.
@@davva360 we got to stop this in the gun community brother I 100 percent believe you that yours was I keep my firearms clean after every range session I know how to maintain firearms and mags I have a dream like Martin Luther king that these mags will work but they just don't when I switch to oem my 43x runs great I have no dog in the fight brother.
@@timtaylor1483 I believe you too. Not saying you are lying. Just sharing my experience. I had had good luck so far. About 500 rounds through two of them.
These after market magzine always jam
Yeppers
For me, the 10 round is a good sweet spot for weight/ammo tradeoff. Its a subcompact, and I'm not planning on fighting off the taliban. 😂
OEM for ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tryna keep up with the Springfield armory hell cat micro
Will this work for the G48 as well
Will this work on a PSA micro dagger(G43) 15rd mag?
You just made me buy a 43x 🙏🏾 just purchased mine for 350.00 plus tax 380.00 if you paid high prices you should’ve waited 😂😂😂
This won’t work with the mag wells right ?
18 rounds in a 43x is wildddd!!!!💯💯💯
Do you still have to change the mag catch with the gen 3s??? Do the mag catches strip the polymer Glock mags? Asking cuz I frequent places where I’ll need to switch back to 10rd mags sometimes
Yesterday you have to use a STEEL mag release button NOT ALUMINUM with shield mags. BUT if you change to the PSA micro dagger then you can use the original glock 10 round mags or 15 rnd dagger mags and keep the polymer mag release button in place..
Could you show how to upgrade the mag catch?
done: czcams.com/video/p3C-pbLlqpY/video.html
I'm not trusting aftermarket mags in my carry gun. Either glock needs to innovate or go to another firearm that gives you the capacity with stock mags. Macro the Springfield are two great options
Does this work with the psa micro dagger mag
Does this work with all magwells?
I am currently running a S15 mag with the +5 extension and it’s worked perfectly thus far.
PSA Micro Dagger 15rd mags work just fine in the Glock 43x / 48, no need to change anything and more reliable.
Is that available for G48?
You can add 5 by buying the Glock 19! Very easy to conceal
I have a 40 rd Glock 43x in Call of Duty Warzone.
Will that +3 work on the OEM Glock mag or is it only for the SA mag? Or does Glock make a +2 or +3 for the 43X?
, unfortunately they don't
The g43x mos with magazine upgrades is the best subcompact on new or used market. Full size capabilities in a concealed subcompact gun!!! Supressor height sights, threaded barrel, optic, ir laser and you have something so versatile you could use in most scenarios when you are out of reach from your riffle
You running an ir laser on your edc gun? Do you have nv goggles edc? If shtf you should have a full size like a g19 or g17. Just my opinion, cause it will shoot better and accept bigger mags, like 33rds
@@professored7169 whoops my bad just normal guide rod laser not ir lol. Primary weapon is always the 7.62 16” dmr with the goodies.
@@drjdmtuning4982 ahh hell yea, nice set up
Where can you buy both?
I use the Psa micro dagger magazine no malfunctions 15+1
Did you have to change the mag catch?
@@christophermayberry1298 no
@@christophermayberry1298 polymer on the front
@@Tank47225 thanks for that will definitely get some!
Glock, yall need to update the g26/27s with weapon accessorie mounts!
Does it work with the psa 15 round mags?
Greetings from Europe ❤
I have three 15 round shield mags and mag release for my 43x and they all jam frequently. I installed the stock release and use the stock 10 round mags, what a waste of money.
Mr. Lenny is the kind of guy who should run the NRA. Now that Lapierre resigned. Honest gun enthusiast, respect for the weapons, and common sense would probably bring respect back to the organization.
Mr. Glock🔥
Nice...
When is shied arms gonna make a higher capacity mag for a glock 19 cause glock doesn't seem to want to do it?
Can you put the +3 on a factory 43X mag?
Their quality control is suboptimal. Had to return the last mag I bought from shield arms
since you demonstrated, what holster are you using?
Did you get an answer on what holster?
So buy a gun then buy an aftermarket magazine plus extension to make it a good gun .im sure the psa new micro is better
Can i use the plus 3 on oem mag
Hello Leny and the whole glockstore team, can that shield arms magazine be used in glock 42? Just wondering?
NOPE..
I hope you guys can make an oem 15rd mag you are Glock!
Do we think this will work on a PSA micro dagger mag?
@bigshrimpn uses that PSA micro dagger mag
Wow that means the plus 3 rounds for my G48 is not far behind. :D
G48 and 43x have the exact same frame. Anything that will work in a 43x will work on a 48.
Heres the issue I have with shield mags, you have to use STEEL mag release buttons. Ive tried several of the aluminum extended mag release buttons from the glock store and after about 90 rounds the notched out area that captures the mag gets a groove cut in it and eventually breaks off. The gun will jam and you cant even eject the mag.
So i switched to PSA micro dagger and put the polymer release button back in and no issue. And i can now run my original 10 rnd glock mags or the 15 rnd Psa mag.
BUT psa micro dagger mags are HARD to load, very tight fit so waiting for the fix on that..
My PSA mags after using for a while got much easier.
I noticed when I load 15rds into the PSA mag, it’s not only hard to load the last round but also hard to insert the mag into the pistol. I only load 14rds in mines. I’m ok with losing 1rd in a slim comfortable packaging.
Using Maglula loader, I can get all 15 rds in. Plus it works with my other magazines.
Is that .45 sir or .9mm??
It's like a mini G45
