Frequently Asked Questions

What problem do Pearce Grip extensions solve for subcompact Glocks?

Pearce Grip extensions solve the 'pinky problem' common with subcompact Glocks like the G26 and G27. They extend the grip frame, allowing a full-hand purchase which improves control, balance, and shooting accuracy by preventing the pinky finger from dangling off the edge.

How do Pearce Grip extensions affect magazine capacity?

Pearce Grip offers various extensions. Some, like the 26XL, only provide an improved grip without adding rounds. Others, such as the 2733 and PG39 models, increase magazine capacity by +1 to +3 rounds for 9mm, and +1 to +2 for .40 S&W/.357 SIG.

What tool is recommended for disassembling Glock magazines?

The video recommends the Magazine Disassembly Tool (MDT), which uses leverage to safely remove stubborn Glock magazine baseplates without damaging them. This is safer and more effective than using punches.

Can Pearce Grip extensions be used on larger Glock models?

Yes, Pearce Grip extensions are also compatible with full-size G17 and compact G19 magazines. This allows users to gain the benefits of improved ergonomics or increased capacity on these larger pistol models as well.
