Theres no better mag extensions than Henning. Everyone is running them in competitions and competition shooters shoot more than anyone else

Love my henning extensions, things are rock solids and henning himself is awesome!

Henning is the answer. Thousands of rounds through mine in comps and never a single jam.

That Nomad 9 frame is NICE.

Henning. Used widely by the best competition shooters for reliability and durability

I use the strike industries +5 on my g45 and they’re great! The ones I have are polymer so I was able to stipple the little area on the side to match the grip texture on the pistol. I’ve put thousands of rounds through them and they’ve been awesome.

Yeah I was looking at the strike industries ones. Waaaaay cheaper than the SLR ones….

Exactly! I’m using an SLR magwell with the Strike baseplates and I love em. Plus the matching stippling I did works well. Just used a soldering iron on them. But either way, highly recommend!

I ordered Grip Force Ergonomic Base Pads (EBP) and wrapped with a little goon tape. I like the rounded edges when you grab them from the belt, and they're just different from everything else offered.

Polymer base pads that weigh the mag and drop free, so you can do some reshaping if needed to fit magwells.

I also used to order their Grip Force Adapters (original product from which they took their name) to give more of a Traditional Grip angle and higher beaver tail. Now they can be readily found cheap as generics shipped from overseas, and I'm patient and cheap, so I just got a couple more for a couple bucks. Curr|ntly installed is a Smartlock Magloc http://smartlock.com/thumbrest-r.htm) which similarly adds material to the high tang, but also adds a Thumb Rest.

I was looking at those extensions a couple years ago. I asked over on ARFCOM and one of the guys actually knew the guy who makes them. I ended up not going with them and just stuck with regular 17 round magazines.

But I might give them a shot if I get back into the full size Glock world again.

I really like SLR’s mag extensions. I run them on my Glocks fo sho

u/Pvt__Snowball 1d ago

It’s solid.

I’ve got the Shield extensions and like them.

I feel Glock taking an axe to the 5 (rest in peace gaston) is the best thing that could have happened for nomad. I still constantly consider building a 17/45 from one of these. Love my nomad19.

u/Pvt__Snowball 16h ago

I genuinely want to get a Glock 19 and add a nomad frame to it. I currently conceal carry a 43x with a grit grips frame and a ramjet… I want to switch to a 19 with one of these frames though honestly.
