Glock Gen 5 9mm 24 Round Magazine Black
The Glock Gen 5 9mm 24 Round Magazine extends capacity beyond standard Glock 17 magazines while maintaining the reliability and durability Glock magazines are known for. This magazine holds 24 rounds of 9mm ammunition and uses the same hybrid construction as all Glock OEM magazines, with a hardened steel insert encased in high impact polymer. The steel insert reinforces the feed lips and prevents them from spreading or deforming under the pressure of a fully loaded magazine, which keeps feeding reliable from first round to last. The orange follower is non binding and provides high visibility for loading confirmation. This magazine fits Glock Gen 5 pistols chambered in 9mm and is also compatible with many pistol caliber carbines and other platforms that use Glock pattern magazines.

Steel Insert Hybrid Construction
The steel insert runs the length of the magazine body and provides structural rigidity that polymer alone cannot achieve. This insert is molded into the polymer body during manufacturing, creating a single piece that combines the impact resistance of polymer with the dimensional stability of steel. The steel prevents the magazine walls from flexing inward under pressure, which keeps the round stack aligned and prevents binding during feeding. The polymer exterior protects the steel from corrosion and absorbs impact energy when the magazine is dropped.
Steel Reinforced Feed Lips
The feed lips are the most critical part of any magazine because they control how rounds are presented to the bolt face during feeding. Glock reinforces the feed lips with steel to prevent them from spreading apart or bending under the pressure of the magazine spring and loaded rounds. This reinforcement maintains the precise geometry needed to hold rounds at the correct angle and release them smoothly as the slide cycles. The steel also resists wear from repeated loading and unloading.
Orange High Visibility Follower
The orange follower makes it easy to confirm the magazine is loaded when looking down from the top, and the bright color is visible through the witness holes so you can see remaining round count at a glance. The follower uses a non binding design that tracks smoothly up the magazine body without tilting or catching on the internal walls. This prevents feeding malfunctions caused by follower tilt, which can occur in magazines with worn or poorly designed followers.
Extended 24 Round Capacity
The 24 round capacity gives you 7 additional rounds over a standard Glock 17 magazine, which extends shooting time between reloads during competition, range sessions, or defensive situations. The magazine body is lengthened to accommodate the extra rounds while maintaining the same width and overall profile as standard Glock magazines. The added length extends below the grip but uses a beveled base plate that aids insertion into the magazine well.
Glock Pattern Platform Compatibility
Glock magazines are used across multiple platforms beyond Glock pistols, including AR15 style pistol caliber carbines, the KRISS Vector, and other firearms that adopted the Glock magazine pattern for its proven reliability. This magazine works in any platform designed to accept Glock Gen 5 9mm magazines, though you should verify compatibility with your specific firearm before purchasing. Some platforms may require magazine catch modifications to work with extended capacity magazines.
Clear Witness Holes and Double Stack Design
The witness holes are positioned along the back of the magazine body and allow you to see how many rounds remain without removing the magazine from the gun. The double stack design staggers rounds in two columns, which maximizes capacity within the magazine width while keeping the overall footprint manageable. The staggered stack feeds into a single column at the top, transitioning smoothly into the feed lips.
Follow safe handling and manufacturer instructions. Ensure compliance with all applicable laws. Check state and local regulations regarding magazine capacity limits before purchase. Verify compatibility with your specific firearm before use. Inspect feed lips and follower for wear or damage regularly.
