Larry Vickers Tactical Extended Glock Magazine Release
 
A slightly extended magazine release for the Glock series of 9mm/40/357SIG series of pistols is the newest product to be released by Vickers Tactical is a collaborative effort between Larry Vickers and TangoDown LLC. The black plastic magazine release is molded from the same material as the factory original but is slightly extended and has rounded edges.
 
Larry has always felt the Glock standard magazine release was too short and the extended Glock release was too long. In addition both versions have sharp edges. After wondering if anyone was ever going to offer a better version he decided to partner up with TangoDown and offer it as a Vickers Tactical product. TangoDown was specifically chosen Larry has known Jeff Cahill for a long time and has used Tangodown products for years also with excellent results – “They were a natural as I consider them one of the best plastic accessory makers in the firearms business” – Larry Vickers
 
The Vickers Tactical Extended Magazine Release was designed to prevent the magazine from accidentally being released if laid on a flat surface. An absolute must for anyone using a Crimson Trace Glock laser unit since the stock magazine catch is almost impossible to activate with a CTC laser in place.
 
Models – All 9mm/40/357SIG Glock models - Does NOT fit Gen 4 Glocks.
 
Available in Black only.

Quality part, but extremely overpriced December 4, 2010
Reviewer: xkcd from United States  
I have relatively small hands, and having the extra release length makes mag changes smoother, without the need to reposition my firing hand. The smoothed edges are more comfortable, but I don't believe they create any difficulty in locating the release. This is a fine part that I believe will help me operate my Glock better, and I'll recommend it as an option to others.

With regard to price, an OEM Glock magazine release is $3. It's a single, small piece of molded plastic, nothing more. I suppose a person could buy an extended Glock release and carefully remove material from the thumb tab end, but that's not an ideal solution. While the Vickers part is useful and well made, I don't believe the end user price should be over 5x that of a comparable Glock part.

Usually the operator, not the weapon.Good product. May 26, 2009
Reviewer: Kevin from College Station, TX United States  
Glock 34/35s come with extended magazine releases already (using the mag releases for the G21/20, which for some people, is too long.  Hence the Vikers Glock mag release).  
This isn't a problem with BCUSA or the merchandise; it's the customer not being informed.

The product itself is great.  I've improved my mag changes; with the stock mag release I would sometimes not depress the button fully under stress (matches, timers, etc) and subsequently the magazine would not fall free by itself.  I would have to shake it out.  This mag catch resolves that problem.

A Must Buy! February 8, 2008
Reviewer: AZ Deputy from Kingman, AZ United States  
This is the best extended magazine release for Glocks I have ever used.  It has just the right amount of extension with slightly rounded edges, so it doesn't hang up.  
Quality is as good as original; simple and effective.  
Buy one for every Glock you own the first time.

Great piece February 4, 2008
Reviewer: S Young from Topeka, KS United States  
I added one of these to my carry 27 and liked it enough that my 22 has one as well now. I find that it is just enough longer over stock to greatly assist reloads without being too long causing accidental drops. The edges are nicely radiused as well.
