The Tokarev TX3 12EXT magazine extension transforms standard shotgun capacity into a high-round platform for competitive shooting and tactical applications. This precision-engineered extension tube delivers reliable feeding and increased ammunition capacity without compromising weapon balance or cycling performance.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic magazine extensions that can cause feeding issues, the TX3 12EXT features a spring-loaded follower system engineered for consistent shell advancement. The extension maintains proper spring tension across the extended length, preventing the jamming and misfeeds common with inferior aftermarket tubes. Internal components resist corrosion and maintain smooth operation through thousands of cycling rounds.
