Compatibility

Fits the Glock® 43X and 48. The Steel Catch Is Included.

This combo fits factory Glock® 43X and 48 frames, including MOS models. It doesn't fit the single-stack Glock® 43 or 43X/48 frames grip-chopped by our S10 service. The S15 is steel, and the polymer catch the pistol ships with isn't compatible with it, so the combo includes our steel catch.

What Is the S15 Magwell Combo 2?

S15 Magwell Combo 2 is a complete Glock® 43X / 48 upgrade in one box: three Shield Arms S15 Gen 3 15-round steel magazines, one S15 +5 extension, the black nitride steel mag catch, and a black Shield Arms Carry Magwell. Carry two S15s flush at 15 and turn the third into a 20-round reload, with the low-profile magwell guiding every magazine into the well faster. Made in the USA, with a lifetime warranty and Spring for Life on the magazines.

In the combo: (3) S15 Gen 3 mags, (1) +5 extension, (1) steel catch, (1) Carry Magwell
Fits: Glock® 43X and 48, including MOS
Capacity: 15 flush, 20 with the +5; 50 total
Finish: black Nitrocarb mags, black anodized extension and magwell

Carry 15. Reload 20.

Flush for Carry. Extended for the Reload.

The S15 is the magazine that put Shield Arms on the map: 15 rounds, flush, in the slim Glock® 43X and 48. The Carry Magwell is its partner, a low-profile funnel that makes the reload faster and more forgiving without a bulky competition flare.

Combo 2 adds a +5 extension to the box. Keep a flush S15 in the pistol, put the +5 on your reload for 20 rounds, and the magwell makes that reload faster. Install the catch and the magwell once, and your 43X or 48 is fully set up.

Why a Steel Catch

Steel Mags Run on a Steel Catch

The S15 is steel and the catch your 43X/48 shipped with is polymer, and the two aren't compatible. This combo includes our Standard steel catch. It's a one-time install, and our installation guides cover the catch, the magwell and the extension. Another manufacturer's catch may cause reliability issues.

Questions

S15 Magwell Combo 2 FAQ

Which pistols does it fit?

Factory Glock® 43X and 48 frames, including MOS models. For the single-stack Glock® 43, see the Z-Series.

Does it work in a grip-chopped pistol?

The S15s do, but the Carry Magwell doesn't fit a frame converted by our S10 Grip Chop Service. For a chopped pistol, see S15 Combo Pack 1 and the Grip Chop Sleeve.

Do I need anything else?

No. The combo includes the steel catch the S15s run on, the hardware for the magwell and the spring for the extension. Our installation guides walk you through both.

Will my polymer 10-round mags still work?

They'll run with the steel catch, but we don't recommend it for regular use. Steel on polymer adds wear to the magazine over time.

Why a Carry Magwell and not the Premium?

The Carry Magwell adds a faster reload with minimal added bulk, which suits a 43X or 48 you carry every day. Want the widest funnel we make? Buy the Premium Magwell with Combo Pack 1.

Can I put the +5 on all three mags?

The combo includes one +5. Add more S15 +5 Extensions if you want every magazine at 20.

How do I install the extension?

Remove the S15 base pad, swap in the included 12-coil power spring and install the extension. Follow the included instructions and our installation guides.

Does the magwell work with extensions?

Yes. It runs the S15 with or without extensions, the S20, both factory Glock® 43X/48 magazines and every aftermarket 43X/48 mag we know of.

Can I get it in another color?

This combo is black only. The Carry Magwell sold on its own comes in Black, Red, Grey, Mud, ODA Green and Gold.

What is Spring for Life?

Free replacement magazine springs for as long as you own your S15s and extension. See the program.

What's covered?

A lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, plus Spring for Life on the magazines and extension.

ODA Green

Used on: magazine extensions, magwells

ODA's (Operational Detachment Alpha) are the boots on the ground operational teams of a Special Forces Group. This color began as a special run for a deployed ODA. In continued support we have decided to continue the color as a standard offering and donate a portion of the proceeds to The Green Beret Foundation. Finish is anodized in green.

QPQ Nitrocarburizing Surface Treatment

Used on: magazines, barrels, slides

QPQ Nitrocarburizing is a type of surface treatment used to enhance the durability and corrosion resistance of metal parts. The process involves heating the metal in a controlled environment, where nitrogen and carbon are introduced to the surface of the metal. This forms a thin layer of a hard compound called "nitrides," which increase the surface hardness of the metal.

During the QPQ Nitrocarburizing process, the metal is immersed in a special salt bath and heated to high temperatures. The salt bath contains a mixture of chemicals that release nitrogen and carbon, which penetrate the surface of the metal. The process is carefully controlled to ensure that the nitrogen and carbon penetrate to a specific depth, creating a uniform layer of nitrides on the metal's surface.

The resulting nitride layer provides many benefits to the metal parts, including increased hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. This treatment helps to increase the lifespan and durability of metal parts, making them more reliable and long-lasting.

Any “scuffing” you see in the surface finish is completely normal, and will not affect the durability or corrosion resistance of the steel.

Electroless Nickel Plating

Used on: magazines

Silver electroless plating offers superior electrical conductivity and corrosion protection with excellent deposit uniformity and adhesion properties. This bright, reflective finish provides outstanding solderability and contact resistance while maintaining the consistent thickness and coverage that electroless plating processes are known for. Black electroless nickel plating provides these same exceptional deposit properties - including lubricity, hardness, and corrosion resistance - but with a fully conductive and uniform black surface finish that combines superior performance with an attractive dark appearance.
