Jason Goodman Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Is the extended slide release and extended mag release production legal modifications? Also, what about a 3.5 trigger mod? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glockster35 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Best thing to do would be to research via the rule book, but I believe all are approved, since they can be purchased with other Glock models. My personal belief is that you are better off without the extended parts, but the 3.5 is a must! See my post about the free 3.5 connector offer from Lone Wolf, their's is probably the best on the market! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoMiE Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 The stock extended mag/slide releases are OK (the ones that come on G34/35). You can't use the mag releases that have bigger paddles or oversized buttons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Replacing stock parts for stock parts is acceptable. Making internal modifications that do not circumvent the safeties is acceptable. IMHO the extended mag release is a good thing, but the extended slide lock lever is more trouble than it is worth. Often times, shooters will rub against the ESLL and cause malfunctions.

The extended slide lock lever is handy if you are using the index finger on it, and the extended magazine release tends to scrape up your hand, depending on your hand size. If you are left-handed, you don't need to worry about accidently hitting the slide lock level. I can see why the opposite would be true for a right-handed person. Thomas H.

I agree,I took the extended release off and opted for the old style.My thumb would hit it and cause the gun to go to slide lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was shooting a match with a lot of weak hand (left) this summer, what a pain! The extended mag release is definitely not made for lefties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmart Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Does anyone know if this mag release is OK? Vickers Extended Mag Release It's not a catalogued, Glock-manufactured part, but it's supposed to split the difference between the stock mag release and Glock's extended version.

jerseyglock Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Use stock G34/35 mag release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RePete Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I have a G17 that came with the NY1 trigger. I, also have a G35 and it comes stock with the 3.5# trigger and extended mag release. I swapped out the connector and trigger spring from the 35 and istalled them in the 17. I purchased a Ghost 3.5# connector, trigger springs and sundry parts and installed them in the 35. The 17 is good to go in production, and the 35 is for anything else. Oh yes, I did the 25 cent trigger job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
