The Cross Armory extended magazine catch solves a real problem that Gen1-3 Glock and P80 owners face. The factory catch sits pretty flush with the grip, which means you have to shift your hand position to reach it during a reload. This aftermarket option extends the catch just far enough to let you drop magazines faster without adjusting your grip, but not so far that it snafs on your holster or gear when you draw.
This piece is CNC machined from 7075 T6 billet aluminum, which is the same material used in aerospace applications. Cross Armory chose this alloy specifically because it offers strength that far exceeds cast alternatives, and they precision machine it rather than casting, ensuring consistent quality throughout. The black anodized finish provides a hard protective coating that resists corrosion and wear from frequent use and cleaning.
What sets this extended catch apart is the improved geometry. Cross Armory engineered the shape to minimize installation time while maximizing how your finger interacts with the button. The extended profile gives you better leverage for faster magazine drops, but the design keeps it from protruding so much that it becomes a liability in a holster or during movement. Installation takes just a few minutes with basic tools like a pick.
This catch works with all Glock Gen1-3 models including the 17, 19, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, and 37. It also fits P80 Polymer80 frames such as the PF940C, PF940V2, PF45, and compatible platforms from PSA, Shadow Systems, Zev, and others using Gen1-3 geometry.
The Cross Armory extended mag catch is designed with a balanced profile that extends far enough for easy magazine drops without the excessive protrusion that causes holster snags. That said, some extremely tight-fitting holsters designed for factory catches may need checking. Most standard holsters accommodate this catch without issues.
The extended geometry gives your thumb more purchase and better mechanical advantage, allowing you to press and release magazines without breaking your grip. Most users notice a meaningful difference during fast reload drills, though the improvement depends on hand size and shooting technique. The extended design shines most during high-stress situations where you need speed without adjusting your grip.
Installation takes just a few minutes with a pick tool or similar implement. You remove the magazine catch bar, slide out the factory catch, and install the Cross Armory catch in the same orientation. No gunsmithing or special knowledge required. Cross Armory provides installation videos online if you want to walk through the process beforehand.
Yes. The extended catch is designed to work with all standard factory magazines and most quality aftermarket magazines designed for Glock Gen1-3 platforms. The improved geometry ensures reliable engagement without over-tightening or under-gripping your mags.
