Description
The stock magazine release on a Glock Gen 4 works fine, but it's small, low profile, and can be a stretch depending on your hand size or grip. Ghost Inc built this extended release to close that gap. It bolts right into the spot your factory part came out of and gives you a longer, wider control that's actually there when your thumb reaches for it, whether you're running a competition stage or just doing dry fire drills at home.
What Makes This Ghost Mag Release Different
The extended profile means you don't have to break your firing grip to reload. That sounds minor until you're timing yourself on a par timer or trying to get a fresh mag in under pressure. The added surface area gives your thumb more to work with, so the button actually depresses fully instead of a half-press that leaves the mag hanging up in the well.
Snag Resistance Built Into the Shape
Ghost rounded and beveled the edges on this release so it doesn't catch on your holster, belt line, or cover garment during the draw. It's a small detail, but it's the kind of thing that matters when you're carrying daily or moving through a shoot house. The polymer build keeps weight off the gun while holding up to repeated use.
Fitment for the Ghost Extended Mag Release GLK Gen4
This release is built for Glock Gen 4 pistols, covering the 17, 19, 22, 23, 26, 27, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38 and 39, and it also works on compatible Gen 5 models. It will not fit the Glock 43 or 48, so double check your model before ordering. Installation is a straight drop-in job, pop the factory piece out and this one snaps into place using your existing spring, no special tools or trips to the gunsmith needed. Ghost backs this with their lifetime warranty, which says a lot about how confident they are in a small part that gets used every single reload.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Ghost Extended Mag Release fit my Glock Gen 5 pistol?
Yes, this release is built for Glock Gen 4 pistols and also fits compatible Gen 5 models in the same size range. It will not fit the Glock 43 or 48, so check your specific model before ordering. If you're running one of the standard 9mm or 40 caliber duty size Gen 4 or 5 Glocks, you should be good to go.
Do I need any tools or gunsmithing to install this mag release?
No, this is a drop-in replacement that uses your existing factory spring, so you just pop out the stock release and snap this one into place. No cutting, filing, or special tools involved. Most people have it swapped in a couple of minutes at the kitchen table.
How is this different from the factory Glock mag release?
It's simply longer and wider than the stock button, giving your thumb more surface to press without shifting your grip. The edges are also beveled so it won't snag on a holster or clothing during the draw. Everything else about how the gun functions stays the same.
What happens if the release wears out or breaks down the road?
Ghost Inc covers this part with a lifetime warranty, so if it ever fails from normal use they'll take care of it. It's a solid polymer build meant to hold up to regular range time and daily carry use without issue.
