Description
Subcompact Glocks like the 26 and 27 are fantastic to carry and a little tricky to hold onto, especially if your pinky is always hanging off the bottom of the grip. That's exactly the problem this Pachmayr Grip Extender solves. It replaces the factory magazine floorplate with a longer polymer sleeve that gives your whole hand somewhere to land, and this particular version does double duty by adding a couple of rounds to the mix. On a Glock 26 you're looking at 13 rounds, and the Glock 27 and 33 jump up to 11.
What the Pachmayr Grip Extender Does for Your Subcompact Glock
The biggest thing you notice is control. A full firing grip means better recoil management and a faster, more natural return to target between shots. The extender is molded to match the shape and texture of the Glock frame, so it lines up with the grip and reads like it came from the factory rather than something bolted on afterward. For anyone who runs a small Glock for daily carry or keeps one at the range, that combination of a fuller hold and a few more rounds is hard to argue with.
Build and Install on the Grip Extender
These are made from tough, high-strength polymer that shrugs off hard use and drops in the bag or holster without a second thought. Installation is quick and tool-free: pop off the factory floorplate, slide the extender down over the magazine body, and lock the new base plate in place. If you can strip a Glock mag for cleaning, you've already got the skill set.
One of the nicer parts of this deal is that Pachmayr sells them two to a pack, so you can set up a pair of magazines or keep a spare on hand. Between the added grip real estate, the bump in capacity, and the factory-matched look, it's a simple upgrade that makes a genuine difference in how a small Glock feels in the hand.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much extra capacity does this Pachmayr Grip Extender add?
This is the XL plus-capacity version, so it adds two rounds to compatible magazines. That brings a Glock 26 up to 13 rounds and the Glock 27 and 33 up to 11 rounds. If you want the added grip length without the capacity bump, Pachmayr makes a standard version as well.
Is the Pachmayr Grip Extender hard to install?
Not at all. You remove the factory floorplate, slide the extender down over the magazine body, and lock the new base plate into place. No tools or gunsmithing required, and if you've ever disassembled a Glock mag for cleaning you already know the routine.
Which Glocks does this grip extender fit?
It's built for the subcompact Glock 26, 27, 33, and 39. It's molded to match the frame's shape and texture on those models so it blends in rather than looking like an aftermarket piece.
How many grip extenders come in the pack?
You get two per package. That lets you set up a pair of magazines or keep one as a spare, which is a nice bit of value since a lot of competing extenders sell just one to a pack.
