Virtually the same as stock
I was excited about this product being ext, but not as extremely as some on the market that can eject when holstered. The problem is that this is essentially the stock product with an ever so slight rounding and I do mean ever so slight and is the exact same length as the stock one in a side by side comparison with one that I removed. The product has a few noticeable difference when compared side by side with the stock part to tell it's not just a modified stock part. I like the concept they were going for especially the slightly rounded tip, but there just isn't enough difference over the stock part to make this a worthy purchase.
It works, but... not so good.
This extended magazine release installed easily enough, looks good and fits well in the Glock 43. But, with this release installed, there's less material extending from the side of the grip than with the stock magazine release button. For me, the "extended" magazine release actually made it harder to release the magazine than with the stock release button. Disappointed, I immediately reverted back to the stock release button.
