Description
TangoDown's Vickers Tactical floor plates came out of real-world pistol craft experience. Designed by Larry Vickers after countless hours behind the gun, these plates address what the factory pads simply don't deliver. The standard Glock floor plate is undersized and offers nothing when your magazine fails to drop free for any of the common reasons it happens in the field.
These floor plates are flared with deep grooved scallops that give you genuine traction whether your magazine is covered in mud, ice, or sand. That aggressive profile makes the difference when you need to rip a magazine out of the gun quickly during a malfunction or when running reloads under pressure. The design works so well for one-handed reloads that you can hook the floor plate under your belt and extract the magazine cleanly without using your other hand.
Vickers Tactical magazine floor plate design benefits
The flared shape gives you more surface area to grab, and the non-slip scallops stay effective even when your hands are wet or the magazine is fouled. Glass-filled nylon construction takes drops on concrete, gravel, and rocks without cracking or deforming. The OD Green color matches tactical gear aesthetics while serving a practical purpose for those who color-code their magazine calibers for quick identification.
Building a reliable magazine ecosystem with these floor plates
The molded dimples across the bottom let you mark or number your magazines for organization and tracking. Fits standard double-column Glock magazines in 9mm, .40 S&W, .357 SIG, and .45 GAP, and works perfectly with Gen 5 models including the 17, 19, 26, and 34. Each pack gives you five plates, enough to outfit a full complement of carry and training magazines. Installation is straightforward and takes just minutes per magazine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Glock models will these floor plates fit?
These Vickers Tactical floor plates work with all standard double-column Glock magazines in 9mm, .40 S&W, .357 SIG, and .45 GAP calibers across Gen 2 through Gen 5 frames. They're compatible with models 17, 19, 22, 23, 26, 27, 31, 34, 35, and 45. Note that early Gen 1 non-metal lined magazines are not compatible.
How do I install these floor plates on my magazines?
You'll need to remove the factory floor plate first by squeezing the magazine sides slightly while using a punch or flat tool to press the retainer button at an angle. Once the original plate is off, slide the Vickers plate onto the magazine body until it seats fully. The process takes just a couple of minutes per magazine once you understand the proper technique.
Will the OD Green color match my Glock frame?
The TangoDown OD Green is more of a ranger green or gray-green tone rather than a direct match to factory Glock OD frames. If exact color matching is important for your setup, you might want to verify the shade fits your preferences. That said, it's a solid tactical color that works well for organization and identification purposes.
Are these floor plates durable for regular range use and training?
Yes, the glass-filled nylon construction handles consistent use extremely well. Users report these plates hold up through hundreds of rounds of training, repeated drops on concrete and gravel, and extended field use without degradation. The material resists impact far better than the factory pads, which is why many competition shooters and training-focused users upgrade all their magazines with these.
