X-Grip Magazine Adapter for Glock 26,27,33 + 7

The Glock 26 is the ultimate subcompact concealed carry pistol. But that tiny grip can be a challenge, especially for those of us with larger hands. Enter the XGRIP. Let’s see why this simple adapter could be the upgrade your G26 needs.

What Is the XGRIP?

The XGRIP is essentially a sleeve that fits over your standard Glock 26 magazine. It’s designed to bridge the size gap between the compact frame and larger Glock magazines (like those from the Glock 19 or 17). This has some significant advantages:

• Improved Ergonomics: The XGRIP gives you more real estate to hold on to. This translates to better control, especially during rapid fire.
• Increased Capacity: Depending on your chosen XGRIP model, you can gain a few extra rounds without sacrificing concealability.
• Aesthetics: Let’s face it: the XGRIP makes your Glock 26 look a bit more balanced and less top-heavy.

Is the XGRIP Right for You?

Consider the XGRIP if:

• You find the Glock 26 grip too small: The extra length the XGRIP provides really makes a difference.
• You want a bit more capacity: While limited, an extra 2 or 3 rounds can make all the difference in certain situations.
• You also use your Glock 26 for home defense: The XGRIP makes the G26 feel more like a full-size pistol for at-home scenarios.

The XGRIP Might Not Be Ideal If:

• Absolute Concealability is Key: The XGRIP does add a bit of length to the magazine, potentially affecting concealment for some people.
• You’re on a Tight Budget: XGRIPs aren’t super expensive, but there are always cheaper ways to modify a gun.

The Bottom Line

The XGRIP is a simple, affordable, and effective way to upgrade your Glock 26’s handling and boost capacity. It’s particularly valuable if you have larger hands or occasionally use your G26 for roles beyond concealed carry.
