Shield Arms’ steel magazine catch is engineered for Glock 43X and 48 pistols and is optimized to work with the Shield Arms S15 magazine. The catch provides an ambidextrous release with a chamfered, textured button and a lower profile intended for concealed carry applications. While it remains compatible with plastic OEM magazines, prolonged use against plastic mags can increase wear and OEM magazines may not drop free; Shield Arms recommends steel-on-steel or plastic-on-plastic pairings. The component is made in the USA and is backed by a 100% lifetime warranty.
