Tyrant CNC TDVP9ERED Extended Magazine Release VP9/VP40 Red

The Tyrant CNC TDVP9ERED Extended Magazine Release transforms the standard HK VP9/VP40 magazine release into a performance-oriented control that reduces reload times and enhances weapon manipulation. This precision-machined aluminum component addresses the common complaint of the factory release being too small and difficult to actuate under stress. Competitive shooters and tactical professionals rely on this upgrade to maintain consistent magazine changes during rapid-fire sequences.

What Makes This Different

Unlike the factory polymer release, this extended version features a 40% larger activation surface machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with Type III hard coat anodizing. The enhanced surface area allows shooters to activate the release without shifting their grip or using excessive thumb pressure. The red anodized finish provides immediate visual identification while resisting wear from repeated use and environmental exposure.

Key Features

• Extended paddle design increases activation surface by 40% over factory release
• 6061-T6 aluminum construction with Type III hard coat anodizing for durability
• Direct replacement for HK VP9 and VP40 pistols in 9mm and .40 S&W
• Red anodized finish provides visual identification and corrosion resistance
• Ambidextrous operation maintains original factory functionality
• CNC-machined tolerances ensure precise fit and consistent operation
• Retains all safety features of the original HK design

The extended paddle geometry allows shooters to maintain their firing grip while executing magazine changes, particularly beneficial during USPSA, IDPA, and 3-Gun competitions where reload speed directly impacts stage times. Law enforcement and military users appreciate the enhanced control during high-stress situations where fine motor skills may be compromised. The aluminum construction withstands thousands of activations without the wear patterns common to polymer components.
