I wrote an earlier, negative review of this product. As it has a lifetime warranty, I reached out to Tyrant Design. After exchanging emails and providing photos, Tyrant offered to replace the magazine catch. It took a while and I was hoping the delay was due to a redesign. And it was. The new mag de...

These are made of great material metals but i have had issues with the shield arms magazines not locking in or falling out when shooting on both of my g48's. I love the design but they dont do their job with the magazines i use. I will say they work great with the standard plastic 10 rounders.

While it works great at first and definitely works to make dropping a mag easier, it also will chew into your plastic mags where they catch the release. It’s a metal on plastic contact instead of the plastic on plastic like the oem mag release. Metal beats plastic so after about 25-30 cycles most of my mags were so chewed up that they wouldn’t catch the release, and fell right out of the gun. Nothing like throwing away 8 25$ Glock mags. Don’t buy this or any other metal or “milled” extended mag release.

Very pleased with the overall look and feel of the mag release. Just enough protrusion to make it easier to feel on the finger press. I installed this on my 43x for my own satisfaction an couldn't be more happier than i am.

Extended ridges offer better function of the magazine release. Normally wear gloves when shooting and this product allows me to quickly eject a empty mag and reload without missing a beat.
Pros:
Texture
Cons:
None

This product is very well made and really ads to the esthetics of my weapon. It matches all other accessories for my weapon. And it looks like it came from the manufacture that way. I recomend this product.
Pros:
Looks good
Very easy to install
Cons:
None
Best Used for:
Glock 43X/48

Magazines eject during recoil. There is extremely little purchase of the Tyrant steel G43X/G48 mag release. Depressing the release button 1/32" will drop the Shield Arms Gen 2 magazines. Much worse is the force from recoil will drop the magazine without touching the release button. This product is absolutely worthless for it's intended use with Shield Arms Gen 2 magazines.
