Frequently Asked Questions

Can Glock 19 or 17 magazines be used in a Glock 26?

Yes, Glock 19 and Glock 17 double-stack 9mm magazines are fully compatible with the Glock 26. This allows for a range of capacity options, from flush-fitting 10-round magazines to extended 17, 19, or even 33-round magazines.

What is the best magazine for concealed carry with a Glock 26?

For maximum concealability, flush-fitting 10-round magazines are ideal for pocket carry. A popular compromise for concealed carry is a 12-round magazine, often achieved by adding a plus-two base plate to a standard 10-round OEM magazine, balancing capacity with a manageable grip.

What magazine options are suitable for home defense with a Glock 26?

For home defense, higher capacity magazines are recommended. Options include the Glock 17 17-round magazine, the Glock 19X 19-round magazine, or even a Glock 19 magazine fitted with a plus-five extension for a total of 20 rounds, plus one in the chamber.

How do magazine extensions affect the Glock 26?

Magazine extensions, such as the Strike Industries plus-two or Mill-Spec plus-five, increase the ammunition capacity of standard Glock magazines. They can also improve ergonomics by providing a fuller grip, which is beneficial for shooters who find the Glock 26's compact grip challenging.
