The Rival Arms RA72G001D Extended Magazine Release transforms Glock Gen3 pistol handling with enhanced ergonomics and faster reload capabilities. This precision-machined aluminum component provides shooters with improved magazine manipulation compared to factory plastic releases. Compatible with all Glock Gen3 models except the 21SF, this upgrade maintains reliability while boosting performance.
What Makes This Different
The extended profile increases the contact surface area by approximately 40% over stock magazine releases, allowing for more positive engagement during high-stress situations. CNC-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, this component resists wear and deformation that commonly affects polymer factory parts. The silver anodized finish provides corrosion resistance while maintaining a professional appearance that complements stainless steel components.
Key Features
- Extended profile for faster, more reliable magazine drops
- Aircraft-grade aluminum construction with Type III anodizing
- Compatible with Glock Gen3 models (excludes 21SF variant)
- Silver finish matches stainless steel slides and barrels
- Drop-in installation requires no permanent modifications
- Textured contact surface prevents finger slippage
- Maintains factory safety and reliability standards
Competitive shooters and law enforcement officers benefit from the reduced reload times this component enables. The extended reach accommodates various hand sizes and shooting positions, particularly beneficial when wearing gloves or during one-handed manipulations. The aluminum construction withstands repeated use without the stress cracking that affects polymer releases after thousands of actuations.
