What is behind the mag release?

What is behind the mag release?

Thumb rest?

What is behind the mag release?

Thumb rest?

From what I remember Archon telling me, it can be used as a thumb rest. But also, depending on how you grip the pistol, it serves to prevent the magazine being ejected. That little ramp provides a buffer so when gripping the gun, you don't fully depress on the mag release. However, when I personally grip the pistol, I don't have that issue.

Yeah but I think the reason ZX9RCAM asked and I went to look for a pic was the little triangle thingy looked like it might be a movable push or toggle switch of some kind until the closeup showed it's a solid piece of plastic integral to the grip.

I need to research these...never heard of them, but now I’m interested!

Wish that triangle shape was a giggle switch

Some people love him or hate him but Colion Noir did a first mag review on it.

Archon is the old Arsenal Firearms people. Lots of marketing speak in their ‘specs’.

Will it fit in a Glock holster?

Can't say for sure, you might be able to find a close match though. The only company I know that makes a stock holster for the Type B is Standard Co USA.
