Magazine extension
I'm thinking about installing mag extensions on my Glock 19... Does anyone have a good/bad opinion with this set-up?

Whatever you do, make sure they function flawlessly before serious use. I hear some, not many, reports of issues with mag function.
I have the Pierce extension +1 for my G27. Don't count on the +1. Makes for better grip, but that is all. I think they false advertise. I should have gotten the +0. There are those who will jump with solutions....do this...do that. No sale. In a G27 by the time you add the extension, you are better off with a G23 anyway. I like the GAP plates. Sorry I can't help you with a G19. I do not own one.

They don't limit you to the number of extra mags you can carry. Heh.

The mag extension is more for comfort than extra rounds on a sub compact, most hands just don't fit properly without an extension. That is if you have real Man hands!

Ehem
 ....I am not going to install a +2, (the math does not work for a civilian) using my 9 round capacity Glock 27 magazine, unless I am a LEO. 9+2 is 11.....Har...har!! I have to add that the functionality of the Pierce grips in my experience have been flawless.

I understand, I actually modified mine by adding an extra spacer inside, so it only fits 10 rounds. I didn't do it for the extra rounds, but rather for the better grip.

Thanks for all the input... I guess it comes down to personal choice. When they arrive I'll install them and post my thoughts.

I put the extions on the mags so that the gun doesn't jump out of my support hand (even when I have a death grip on it) when my hands are sweaty. The back edge of the grip is the same length with or without the extension and that is where I tend to print (along with the back of the slide). It works for me...
