X-GRIP® GLOCK® 26 / 27 Gen 5 Magazine Grip Adapter Sleeve – GL26-27-G5
The X-GRIP® GLOCK® 26 / 27 Gen 5 Magazine Grip Adapter (GL26-27-G5) is an ingenious, low-profile modular enhancement designed to instantly scale up your subcompact frame's capacity and operational control. For everyday carry, the subcompact Glock 26 or 27 offers an easily hidden, short footprint—but its truncated frame can leave your pinky finger floating, making weapon manipulation during rapid fire significantly more challenging. The newly patented X-GRIP sleeve (609408769481) completely bridges this gap, allowing you to slip a **full-size, high-capacity Glock 17, 22, or 31 magazine** into your subcompact pistol, expanding your onboard capacity by a massive +7 rounds in 9mm or +5 rounds in .40 S&W.
The core design brilliance of the GL26-27-G5 architecture is how seamlessly it flows into the native geometry of the handgun. Rather than leaving an ugly, unsafe open gap between the subcompact magwell and the base plate of a full-size mag, this adapter completely fills the void. It mirrors the classic **Gen 5 texturing** on the front strap, providing a continuous, rock-solid full three-finger grip surface that mimics the natural feel of a full-size Glock 17 frame. This added mechanical leverage prevents the muzzle flip and rotational torque common with small pistols, drastically tightening up your shot groups. Molded from an ultra-tough, impact-resistant proprietary polymer, it slips smoothly over the top of the magazine and locks into place around the floorplate without requiring set screws, permanent frame modifications, or special tools.
Includes: (1) X-GRIP GLOCK 26/27 Gen 5 Full-Size Magazine Grip Adapter Sleeve – Black.
*Please Note: This is a hollow polymer adapter sleeve only. It does NOT include a magazine and does not change the internal capacity of the feeding device. It is designed explicitly for Gen 5 OEM magazines used inside Gen 3, Gen 4, or Gen 5 subcompact frames (Will not fit Gen 1 or Gen 2 factory magazines).
Key Features
- Subcompact to Full-Size Scale: Bridges full-size Glock 17/22 magazines into a Glock 26/27, granting an instant capacity boost (+7 Rounds in 9mm / +5 Rounds in .40 S&W).
- Gen 5 Aesthetic Flow: Engineered to match the anthropometrics and front strap texturing of Gen 5 Glock frames for a seamless, factory-molded look.
