Glock extended mag plates... which one do I choose

- This is a review over several different options for extended mag plates for the Glock magazine. There are polymer and aluminum base plates available. This review gives you information on issues that I have had with some of the Mag plates. I've had no failure to feed issues with any of these brands. Only issue I've had it's getting the amount of rounds advertised in the Pearce grip brand. I have had no issues with the Taran Tactical, Strike Industries, or Hyve. Thanks for watching please leave any comments below and like And subscribe thanks.
To get the extra round in the Pearce extensions you have to go without the inside lock plate eliminate the inside plate and when sliding on the magazine extension and tabs fall in place you can get the extra round in!
oscar ostolaza great information thank you so much
I've never had an issue with the +1 Pearce grip extension. I put them on all of my Glock 27 magazines and have pretty happy with the results. I've tried the OEM Glock +2 extensions but I prefer to use the Pearce +1 for their feel and appearance.
I stuck a Vortex Viper on my Gen 3 27 using an Outer Limits rear sight mounting plate and in an attempt to speed up my follow up shots and quicker dot acquisition I was turned onto the X Grips for the 19 / 23 magazines and I find that I really like them. The extra purchase makes the snap of the G27 more controllable and I don't have to use a death grip or reposition my hand every couple of shots. Having the additional 3 rounds is a big plus and not having to mess with floor plates is great (Not that it is hard to do, even without a mag disassembly tool.) I have also since taken the Viper off and went back to my Tritium night sights. For a couple reasons but the biggest being sight acquisition, I found that when the pistol was at arms length in a shooting position I would struggle to find the dot at all let alone get the dot on target. I'm sure I could train myself to use a red dot sight but I didn't feel I could trust it with my life. The Viper itself is very reliable and I've used it on both my AR-15 & AR-308 as a back up sight to a scope and never had an issue with it. But for an EDC or bedside pistol I'll stick with my 3 dot Tritium sights and TLR-6.
I also recently purchased a Double Diamond 9mm conversion barrel for my Gen 3 G27 and with it's less snappy recoil I may buy a couple GET magazines go back to the Pearce +1 extensions. For now though it's the G19 & G23 magazines with the X-Grip G26-27C for me.
Great video too by the way! Thanks for taking the time to explain some of the options out there. I wasn't aware of how the metal style extensions attached or that you had to do any modifications to your magazines make them fit properly.
T. Show thanks...yeah I like the Pearce other than not being able to put all the extra rounds that it claims. Some metal ones do require the plastic lil tabs on the mags to be trimmed but not all...they still work just fine. Thanks again
T. Show @
I know this comment is old, but let me buy those oem +2 extensions you don’t like
The Hyve Technologies base plates fit the pistol better and more seamless than the others
Yeah I like them...I have some for my G26 now...I like the new design
I have the HYVE +1 for my two G43 Mags! Working great with no need for extra spring!
Great information 👍🏻👊🏻
I have a zev tech +5 on my p80 19 and a hive on my 30s and 36 hive are very reliable but that zev tech is my favorite probably the best one ive brought +5 on my standard 15
You should try out vickers tactical baseplate it’s metal and has grooves so it drops faster
Was hoping to see Glock OEM +2 extension.
I have the HYVE +1 & +2 extensions on my G43 and they were very easy to Install and they work without a Flaw using the Glock Factory Springs in the magazine. Not much more to say except the +2 is only 1/4" longer than the +1 and you get a 8 +1 carry gun!
Yeah the Hyve are good and have worked well. They can be hard to remove though
Glockstore base plate for maxwell clearance, no additional rounds. So far I'm happy with it.
I'll have to try the Taran's. You presented them very well.
Thanks
Great video. I dig the Taran Tactical base plates!
KSGunGuy 01 yeah they are NICE!!!...thanks for checking out the vid
I wouldn't want to buy anything from taran tactical anymore with the taran and jade fiasco earlier this year. Taran Weinstein
GREAT INFO FOR GLOCKS ON YOUR CHANNEL!!! JUST FOUND IT AND WATCHED PROB 5 VIDEOS SO FAR LOL. ALSO JUST ORDERED THE BARACUDA MAG EXT. FOR THE 26, ACTUALLY ADDS 4RDS AND IS ABOUT THE SAME SIZE AS THE HYVE.
MK bodybuilding glad you found the channel and if you can tell I like Glocks. thanks for watching
The first extension i ever used was the hyve for my m&p 9c. As soon as i loaded all rounds the follower caught on the bottom of the magazine. After the first shot, whatever was in chamber, no rounds would feed out if the magazine.
Good information to know
Pearce, Taran Tactical, and OEM +2 is all I trust with my life. Arredondos are good but with new Glocks you have to file down the follower which is annoying I know some of the other extended baseplates do the same thing
Thanks for the information
Check out the ETS 7 round mags for the Glock 43. They sit flush and hold an extra round.
AR Shenk thanks for the info...I will definitely have to check them out. I’m waiting on Shield Arms to come out with a metal mag that will hold more rounds with the same foot print.
When it comes to the taran’s or the hyve’s, i think its silly to pay more for an extension than for another factory mag. The strike extensions for $18 is acceptable to me. I carry a g19 with the stock 15rd mag, then have two 17rd mags with the pearce +2 for 19 as back ups.
Great point 👍🏻
To be fair the Tarans and hyves look to be machined whereas the other cheaper ones are just polymer. Purely personal preference as long as they all perform fine but that's why the costlier ones are more costly.
I bought 3 of the strike industries for my G42 they wouldn’t feed the second round after using 8+1 so I just took them off I wanted to use them for my edc rotation
I had/have the same problem with Pierce +2 and my 26 Gen 3. It's almost impossible to get 12 in there and the easy loader doesn't help
The hyve ones are my go to, they’re not bad for the price.
I agree they do work well.
Definitely have to get that taran tactical thank for the info good vido still helping 3 years later 😂😂
It’s never too late 😁
Nice video. I would have liked to see which one you liked best and why.
Quality Guru May have to do an update video...from what I have on this video, all have worked great over the years. Hype has come out with some improvements and I really like the ones they have now for the double stack Glock models. Taran Tactical work great too I really like them for my G43.
Nice video. Nice to see so many options side by side.
I think for the Glock 22, it would be 15 + 4, not 22 rounds.
Yeah I did make a mistake, it was a +5/6 mag plate so it would be 15+5 and give you 20rds of 40 cal.
Think I'd go TT. Not a fan of having to nueter my mags.
Brandon K the TT are my favorite thus far...I have about 5-6 of them now and plan to get some more.
Brandon K you should check Cain arms . Best ever and not to expensive
Hyve is best. No comparison. I've tried them all.
Mike Mc good option
Why would you choose it over the taran? Just curious , trying to decide myself
Thomas Nalley with the Taran Tactical you do not have to cut the little tabs on the side of the magazines for them to work. Other than that they both work great and Hyve cost a little less. Both are great products. I just bought 3 Hyve plus two for my G26 and really like them
Yes. I have had great experience with Sig (p320, P38). I have owned Glocks, Sheilds, Rugers....you can't go wrong with Sig quality and reliability. I would recommend this gun over any on the market now including Glock.
You da man! Think might look into those for my 22.
David Nanyes just got some Hyve for my G26 and really like them
Just a heads up, the Hyve base plates will not for the frame and seat properly with the Pearce grip frame plug. Did not know that before I bought for my Glocks.
K N yeah the grip plug will get in the way for some extended mag plates
Pearce + extensions are not reliable, never have been. There is not enough pressure with the OEM magazine Spring when you stretch it out by using the Pearce extension. You should get an extra power magazine spring when using those extensions or you will have issues feeding.
PaLEOjd good information I've never had any issues with any of my extensions the ones for the Taran Tactical the Glock 19 magazines always put a Glock 17 magazine spring in them. Same with the Glock 43 they normally have a higher weight spring that comes with the magazine extension glock 26 Springs are already heavy enough that you don't need a heavier spring.
Here in Commiefornia, we can only have 10 rounds so I'm going with the Pearce XL (+0) on my Glock 26. If I want to go illegally beyond 10 rounds, I'll just get Glock 17 or 19 magazine and go with X-Grip sleeves to extend the grip of the short handled 26. I think that's the best way to go on a Glock 26 because you're just running stock magazines and not trying to increase the OEM factory magazines' original capacity.
I had tons.of issues after adding it. Switched back to the OEM pmate and works flawlessly. Lesson learned.
CAVlogs121 did you have problems with the +0 Pearce pinky extension or did you have problems with a (+1 or +2) Pearce pinky extension?
@@gabbyhayes1568 I wouldn't trust a sleeve on reloads with my life but to each their own. I run 12 rd OEM mags, I know I'll have zero issues on reloads.
So your telling me you can finesse extra rounds into a mag that way
I was unaware that taran plates were a thing and bought cheap chinese knockoffs not knowing they were knockoffs of anything and they work perfectly fine for only 13 bucks lol.
Drift Cat707 I’ve seen those knock offs but always scared to try them out. Glad they work
@@gagunshooting803 yea the pin just doesn't align too well to lock it properly but it seats good enough,if u make a little indentation in the mag it'll be fine but yea fit and finish ain't nearly as good thanks for the video!
@@gagunshooting803 Update: nevermind they suck ass stove piped my glock numerous times buy name brand next time 😂
Can you make another video with these and Henning group plates and Suarez magwell? I have been trying to find out if Suarez magwell is compatible with Taran, Henning, and, hyve base plates, so I can make an informed decision
Chris Anders I don’t have any magwells but I’m sure they should work. If I ever get a magwell I’ll definitely do another video...thanks for watching
Will the glock 19 +3 base pads work on the glock 17 magazines? They seem like they would since they don’t use different springs.
Drew D They make a +4 9mm mag plate for full size mags. On the site they claim that the extended mag plates for the compacts will not working k with the full sized mags...think there is a little difference in the angles of the mags/plates to prevent them from being universal. I haven’t tried the ones designed for the compacts on a full size mag. I have plus 5 mag plates for the full sized mags.
Great video
Mac Mal thank you so much thanks for watching hope you have a great holiday
Try barracuda mag extensions if you haven’t already
Kevin Paroz I've looked at them...may give them a try
I use those Pearce XL plus +3 and you can first 3 into them. I always just do extra 2 tho. With the whole 3 there is literally no room after you put that 3rd one in. Like the spring is fully completly depressed, dont think that'll be good in the long run. Just my opinion tho
Shectershredder yeah I’m happy with just putting 2 in the plus 3 mag plates. That third was just too much.
with the extensions that aren't Hyve branded, do they recommend taking the plate that is attached to the bottom of the spring off? I think that may give you one more, right? Just a thought.
Jay Meachum yeah I don't use the plate on the Taran tactical or the Hyve Mag plates. The strike Industries comes with its own mag plate so you don't have to get a heavier power spring. With the Pearce Mag extensions they come with a plate to go with it.
TRY THE BARACUDA, WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT U THINK ABOUT IT VS THE TARAN
MK bodybuilding I'll have to check it out...thanks
The texture on the strike industry base plate is most definitely gen 5 not 4 🤦🏼♂️
JMD Pranks You could be right but I believe this video was made before the Gen 5 Glocks came out 🤷🏼♂️
Very cool. I want to try some TT plates when I eventually convert my Gen 2 to 9mm.
UziNineMillomeetah I converted my 22g3 to a 9mm and it was the best thing I ever did. Got a stormlake barrel on a super deal and replaced the extractor and ejector and runs like a top.
Dawson Precision is what I use. Plus five and reliable. TT are junk.
OD91MJ I haven't tried Dawson Precision...Taran Tactical has worked fine for me. What issues have you had?
They look really good. Do you know how many 9mm round the .200 and .300 extensions hold? Do they work with a magwell? Do I have to order springs separate as well?
J. Paul Rogers I'm not sure what mag extensions you are referring to when you say .200 and .300?
Gerald /GAgunshooting I was replying to the other fella. The baseplates I was looking at were listed as +100, +200 or +300 but I see that was just extended floorplates for competition shooting and not added capacity plates. I'm still hunting for some. I have a Magpul minimal magwell on my pistol and can't use the Hyve plates, need something like the TTI plates. Have you tried any others since posting?
Well my LEO department has had issues with them on the range. My buddy also had one and it kept popping off.
Give Dawson a try they are solid. I want to try the Hyve brand for my g26 and 27.
Great video. My EDC is a G26. I also carry a G45 on duty and keep the same mags (G17) on me to reload my G26. I currently have a Pearce +2 grip ext on a standard G26 mag. I'm considering EITHER of these as my initial magazine carry in the G26: a G19 mag with a grip sleeve, or a +3 ext on my standard G26 mag. - Your opinion? And does anyone make a solid 13-15 round mag with a build-in grip for the G26? Thanks for your input.
Well if you’re not worried about the length of your grip I would definitely go with the Glock 19 mag and grip sleeve. I would go with the +3 if you’re looking to reduce a little bit of grip compared to the G19X mag. I’m currently running a Hyve +2 on my G26. I not aware of any solid 13-15 round mag with built in grip for the G26.
just ordered a +5 from shield arms ive been hearing about them gonna give it a try
@@ayotazo3467 hope it works out great for you.
Is the Glock 17 TTI plus 6 really worth the money? They run $42 plus $10 for shipping and a ETS mag is only $15 plus $5 for shipping. So $52 for 23 rounds vs $20 for 22 rounds and with the TTI you have to already have a mag put to base pad on.
bishop2355 it's worth it if you are going to use it alot. I don't really use mine too much any more. I keep it on my bedside gun now. The cheaper one may be all you need.
Thanks for the reply. I've only heard good things about TTI products and good things about the ETS mags as well. I'm a cheapskate so for the price of the one TTI extended base plate I could get 2 ETS mags. My G17 is my bedside gun as well. I have found some knockoff aluminum plus 5 base plates on ebay for $15 that I might give a try.
bishop2355 yeah I try to catch them on deals myself. I saw those cheaper ones as well...thought about giving them a try too.
Does TT make a plus 3/4 for the Glock 30?
They make a .45 plus 4 not sure if it will work on the G30 it does work on the G21 and G41
Why can’t you use a ZEV + 5 on a G26 10-round magazine?
MatthewinGA Well just off the top of my head there would have to be a cut out in the front and back due to the G26 frame being notched in both front and back areas. Hyve makes some and they work great...not sure if they make a +5 but the +2 work well and are notched out to fit the frame.
“Mags are great...Mmmmmmmm k?”
What about zev technology I’m not seeing a lot of videos on it
Not sure haven’t tried the Zev
hey boss . i just got a magpul g17 mag. do i have to have a base plate or can i use my mag the way it is. .. try not to laff lol.
BaSs It’s good to go the way it is!!!
Just do what I do and buy them all
Glockmeister 357 lol...I'm with you on that...So many dang different ones to choose from...Thanks for watching bro...Stay safe and carry on
Right after we messaged about the trigger the other night I decided to order a Suarez international trigger and the ccw magwell everyone says it's great I know the price was awesome, I'll make a video comparison with the Wheaton Arms
Glockmeister 357 cool...I'm subscribed...I look forward to seeing the video.
What magwell would fit the Hyve +5 bumpers?
I don’t add any additional mag wells I just run them in the standard frame mag well.
Did you have any rattling with the hyve? I installed them on my mags for my 26 and they rattle for some reason
miguel alvarez yes I did at first but then after loading them several times and unloading the rattle stopped.
I just got a TTI +3 for my 19 a few days ago and notice it rattles as well. Hope it goes away after cycling some rounds through it like GA gunshooting said his did
Any feeding issues with certain ammo on your strike industries base plate?
FullTimeGrindn no issues...has work great with all so far...both the one for the 42 & 43
Gerald /GAgunshooting thanks for the info, I do have a hard time getting that 8th round in
Hyve for the win
Aaron H great choice
Does these work for the G32 gen4 and gen3
deanonta holmes I'm sure all these brands have them for that model.
Any base plates for the glock 30sf ?
localz303 not that I’m aware of that will add more rounds pretty much I have just seen pinky extensions
GA gunshooting i heard the glock 21 mags and the 30 mags are similar could i use a base plate from the 21?
localz303 not sure but may be worth the try
UPLULA!!!
do the extension fit all glock mags ??
Drew Thmas They fit specific ones...when you order them they should specify which ones they fit and if a different spring is recommended.
Gerald /Gagunshooting i have a G 17 but on tartan tactical web site they don’t have one for the G 17
And the g23 holds 13 so 13+5=18 not 22 bud
JMD Pranks Good catch but I think we are both wrong I was referring to the Glock 22 not the Glock 23 so it would be 15+5 which equals 20...shit happens
