Great accessory and quality product, no doubt. Nothing to disappoint here. Just keep in mind that if you use a G43 for every day carry (EDC) like I do, this extender will fundamentally alter your muscle memory when going from a 6rd to a 6+1rd extended magazine. It may seem insignificant at first glance, but in a standard 6rd configuration, your pinky wraps underneath the butt of the magazine, similar to the G26 or G27. But this extender includes a grip rest for your pinky, providing a different, full, five-fingered grip than what you've practiced with before. That may not seem like a big deal at first, but keep in mind that with this accessory in place 1) the magazine does extend such that the likelihood of printing through your clothes increases, and 2) if you've already practiced with the standard 6rd and are used to it, then need to reach for the 6+1rd in a high stress situation, the different grip could confuse your existing muscle memory in that split second you need to lay a bead and torch a round. So for EDC conceal, make sure you practice, practice, practice with the new extender in place so you develop muscle memory to account for the difference.Read full review

Bought two of these. I tried them out with 50 rounds each of lawman 147gr FMJ. I shot 50 rounds through my first mag with the +1 extender. got 2 failure to feeds on the last round. Shot 50 rounds through the second mag, also with extenstion. Same exact result. got 2 FTFs. It's clear to me that the stock glock spring cannot be used reliably with this extender since it does not have enough force to consistently feed the last round due to the additional length on the magazine. good concept but needs stronger spring!

Pearce makes grip extensions for the glock better than glock makes grip extensions for the glock. Blows my mind how much better than the guns own manufacturer these grip extensions are. They are textured to match the texture on the glock frame and on top of that, they even make it possible to add one more round to the magazine. They look better visually, feel better and increase the magazine size. Definitely recommend these to any glock 43 owner. The second picture shows the texture compared to the OEM glock magazine plate (Glock is on left, Pearce is on right). It adds only just about 1/8" or less to the length of the magazine.

I installed the Pearce3 Plus one Pinky Grip Magazine extension on my Glock 43 magazine. It fits perfectly and seems to work well. I'm going to run several boxes of Ammunition of various weights through it before I'll carry it in my EDC. I want to make sure that the stock magazine spring will handle the extra tension put on the magazine by adding a seventh round.

the pearce grip extension (plus one capacity) is an excellent product. it adds one more cartridge to the magazine capacity, and it fits as if it were made by glock. it even has the textured finish on the front of the grip extension, making it match the finish on the grip of the pistol itself. i tell ya, it looks factory oem. the feel is fantastic. it allows me to get a full, four finger grip on my pistol. like the factory magazine with the pinky extension, but with the added round count. i installed it with little effort. removing the factory magazine base plate was the most difficult part (because of the locking side tabs glock has added to the g43 magazine), but with a good punch or screwdriver it still came off with little effort. be mindful that the spring is under tension, even though i unloaded it first, so be careful to place your thumb over it as you slide off the factory base plate and you should be fine. i would highly recommend this product to anyone wanting to add one more round to the g43, and also improve their control of the pistol. i have medium-large hands, and i can get a solid purchase on my little single stack edc. the price is also great. this is by far one of the least expensive upgrades i have ever done to any pistol, while being one of the most valuable. safety first, my friends. good day :)Read full review
