Glocks are some of the most reliable and popular pistols in the world. They are used by law enforcement officials and Military personnel worldwide.

It makes for an excellent service pistol, is great for home defense, can be used as a concealed carry pistol, and with a few upgrades, makes for a great competition pistol.
Glocks may not be the best-looking pistols on the market, but they sure are reliable and effective. They are also quite ergonomic, with all the control surfaces being easy to engage. However, if you want to use your Glock 19 as a race gun or be able to perform quicker reloads on your home defense Glock, you should consider installing an extended magazine release.
What Is a Glock 19 Extended Magazine Release?
Glock 19s have a magazine release button on the left side of the pistol. The button can also be moved to the right side for left-handed shooters. An extended magazine release has a bigger surface, which is easier to engage when doing fast reloads.
Extended magazine release buttons are usually made from aluminum and come in a wide range of finishes. Many shooters also opt for unique finishes on their Glock 19 magazine releases to change up the aesthetics of their Glock.
What Are the Benefits of Using a Glock 19 Extended Magazine Release?
Using an extended magazine release on your Glock 19 will significantly improve its ergonomics. An extended magazine release is easy to engage, even for people who have small hands. They don't need to shift their grip to push the magazine release button and can perform faster reloads. Therefore, a magazine release is an excellent upgrade from a Glock, especially if you intend to use it for competition shooting.
