I'm probably gonna order a cheap +2 off of Amazon and try it out before dropping the coin on a Taran or Hyve. I ordered a mag guts kits last night to try out so I'll already have that.
GHEYYYYYYYYYYYY

She doesn't really want an extended mag so if it works I'm gonna just order the preassembled G42 mag with +2 baseplate from Hyve but that's $50 so I don't want to spend the money on it if it's not gonna work...Hey, at least I helped you find the parts that you couldn't find on their website, lol...BTW, hit me up when you wanna make me a holster for the LCP II and the G42. Your old lady has a G42, no?

Taran. 43 only though. No 19 stuff :/

Yeah, I was about to say I looked on Amazon for the Taran Tactical but only saw 43 stuff, no 42 stuff. I haven't looked for Hyve but shipping on Hyve is only $2.60 if I decide to go that route.

I had looked at the Strike Industries but my wife says that "they are ugly". I guess she likes the looks of the Taran Tactical and Hyve Technologies stuff better. Her hand fits perfect on the G42 so she doesn't really need any texturing on the base pad anyways.

Nothing ugly about the Strike Industries...

I didn't really think so either but she did. I honestly think it's because she said that if she has to have an extension she wants the purple Hyve +2. She said if she gets the purple Hyve +2 she wants the purple extended mag release and the purple slide cover plate too...Mag guts it is! ;)

Krylon makes a spray paint for plastic applications. My wife is a fashionista as well but basic black works for the Glocks. She did get a leopard print holster for her G37.

Got the Mag Guts kits in the mail today. Installed it in one of the G42 mags. Haven't had a chance to run any mags through it yet but I did hand cycle it through the entire mag 5 times and didn't have any issues.

So it is just a modified spring?

Modified spring and follower. Turns a 6rd mag into a 7rd mag. I have this +2 magazine extension coming(should be here Monday)...

https://gallowayprecision.com/glock/g42/plus-2-magazine-extension-for-glock-g42/

I ordered 2 of the Mag Guts kits so I'm gonna see if the Mag Guts kit works with the +2 extension to make it essentially a +3 for a total of 9 rounds. If it does work I'm gonna order her the purple Hyve +2 baseplate, slide cover plate and extended mag release that she wants.
