Description
The Ghost Inc. Mother of All Baseplates, better known as the MOAB, has been a go-to mag extension for Glock owners for years, and the Gen 2 sharpens up the formula. Bolt it onto your factory Glock 19 or 23 magazine and you pick up six extra rounds in 9mm, or five if you're running .40 S&W or .357 SIG. Beyond the round count, that longer baseplate gives your pinky somewhere to live, which makes a compact Glock feel a whole lot more planted in the hand.
What Sets the MOAB G2 Apart
The headline update on the Gen 2 is a patent-pending perimeter ring that wraps and reinforces the extension, so it shrugs off the drops and mag dumps that come with real range time. Inside you get a stainless steel extra-power magazine spring, which is the part that matters most since it has to keep those added rounds feeding smoothly to the top. The polymer body carries textured extraction traction points and debris ports, so grabbing a mag for a reload and keeping grit out of the works are both handled.
Getting Your MOAB Installed
Installation is a straightforward swap you can do at the kitchen table. You'll pull the factory baseplate, insert, and spring, then reuse only your original follower with the new Ghost spring, sleeve, and base. Wear eye protection when you're working with the spring under tension and you'll be done in a few minutes. One thing worth knowing up front: the MOAB is built for standard 15-round Glock 19/23 mags and does not fit 10-round magazines.
Ghost has been manufacturing in the USA since 2000 and backs everything they make with an unconditional lifetime warranty, so this is a low-risk way to add capacity and comfort to mags you already own. Whether you're feeding a competition stage, stacking up range mags, or just want a fuller grip on your carry gun's spare, the MOAB G2 is a practical, proven upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many rounds does the Ghost MOAB G2 add to a Glock 19 magazine?
It adds six rounds to a 9mm Glock 19 magazine, taking a standard 15-round mag up to 21. If you're running a Glock 23 in .40 S&W or a .357 SIG mag, you'll gain five rounds instead. It works with factory 15-round mags, not the 10-round versions.
Does the MOAB Gen 2 come with a new spring, or do I reuse my factory one?
The MOAB kit includes its own stainless steel extra-power spring, which you'll use in place of the factory spring. The one part you keep from your original magazine is the follower, which reattaches to the new Ghost spring during install. This heavier spring is what keeps the extra rounds feeding reliably.
Is the Ghost MOAB extension hard to install?
Not at all. You remove the factory baseplate, insert, and spring, then reuse your follower with the included Ghost spring, sleeve, and base. It's a few-minute job at home, just wear eye protection since the magazine spring is under tension.
Will the MOAB G2 fit my Glock 19 or 23 magazine?
Yes, it's designed for factory Glock 19 and 23 OEM magazines. Just keep in mind it does not fit 10-round magazines, so you'll want standard 15-round mags for this one. Ghost backs it with an unconditional lifetime warranty.
