TangoDown Glock Extended Magazine Release GMR-001
The TangoDown Extended Magazine Release (GMR-001) is a precision-engineered drop-in upgrade that lets shooters with average or small hands perform fast, confident magazine changes without breaking their firing grip.
- Extended, radiused catch makes mag releases faster and more natural
- Compatible with the majority of Gen 1, 2, and 3 Glock pistols
- Injection-molded from the same tough polymer as the OEM Glock part
- Carefully sized extension won't cause accidental drops on hard surfaces
- Ideal for use alongside backstrap-mounted lasers and accessories
- Easy installation with no special tools or gunsmithing required
Who This Is For
The TangoDown GMR-001 is perfect for Glock owners — especially those with smaller hands — who struggle to reach the factory magazine release without shifting their grip. It's equally valuable for competitive shooters chasing faster reloads, everyday carriers who prioritize reliable one-handed operation, and anyone running a backstrap laser who needs a release that clears the added bulk. If you run a Gen 1, 2, or 3 Glock and want a smarter, more ergonomic mag release without going overboard on extension length, this is the upgrade you've been looking for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the TangoDown GMR-001 fit my Gen 4 or Gen 5 Glock?
No — the GMR-001 is designed specifically for Gen 1, 2, and 3 Glock pistols. Gen 4 and Gen 5 models use a different, reversible magazine release system that is not compatible with this part. If you own a Gen 4 or Gen 5 Glock, check for a TangoDown release designed for those generations before purchasing.
Is the extension long enough to cause accidental magazine drops?
TangoDown specifically engineered the GMR-001 to strike the right balance — it extends enough to improve ergonomics and reach, but not so far that it risks an unintentional release if the pistol is set down on a flat or hard surface. This makes it a practical choice for both carry and range use.
How difficult is it to install the TangoDown extended magazine release?
Installation is straightforward and does not require any specialized tools or gunsmithing experience. The GMR-001 is a direct drop-in replacement for the factory Glock magazine release, using the same dimensions and retention method as the OEM part. Most users complete the swap in just a few minutes with basic field-strip knowledge.
