TACFUN Weighted Magazine Base Plate for Glock 9mm/.40 - Adds Drop Free

In this review the TACFUN 2 Pack Weighted Magazine Base Plate is evaluated for shooters who want a simple, affordable upgrade to improve magazine handling and reduce felt recoil. The bottom line: this accessory is for Glock owners who want extra mass at the magazine base to encourage faster empty-mag drops and a small reduction in muzzle flip. It is a straightforward replacement part that installs quickly and is built from CNC machined billet aluminum with a hard anodized finish, making it a practical choice for everyday range use or competition practice.

Key Features

• Weighted design: Adds 1.7 oz of mass to each magazine to help the empty mag drop free more reliably during reloads.
• Wide compatibility: Works on a broad range of Glock models including 17, 19, 26 and several.40 and.45GAP variants so one purchase covers multiple pistols.
• Durable construction: CNC machined from billet aluminum and hard anodized to resist wear from frequent magazine changes and holster contact.
• Easy installation: Super easy to attach and detach from the magazine, allowing fast field installation without specialized tools.
• Set quantity: Comes as a 2 pack so users get two upgraded base plates for paired magazines or a spare for rotation.

Who It's For

This accessory is best for Glock owners who carry or train with factory magazines and want a low-cost way to improve reload speed and reduce perceived recoil. It suits competitive shooters who value faster, more consistent mag dumps and recreational shooters who prefer a slightly heavier pistol balance.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners of Glock 43X or 48, since the product is not compatible with those models, and users who prefer polymer or minimalist base plates where added weight is undesired.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid weight that helps empty magazines fall free more consistently under recoil.
• CNC machined aluminum with hard anodize offers a durable, serviceable finish.
• Broad Glock model compatibility covers common 9mm and.40 pistols for versatile use.

Cons

• Not compatible with Glock 43X/48, so buyers must verify model fit before purchase.
• The added weight is modest and may be insufficient for shooters seeking a major change in recoil management.
