When Glock® released the single stack .380acp G42, shooters everywhere snapped them up. The Austrian brand had its first compact concealable pistol that could be worn comfortably anywhere, anytime. The upside is the G42 has all of the features you’d expect from Glock®.
The downside is – it’s almost too small. For shooters with medium to large size hands, the pistol grip is just too short, forcing a finger or two off the weapon when firing. Not the best form to control a .380acp defensive handgun cartridge accurately. The 6 + 1 ammunition capacity wasn’t exactly confidence inspiring either.
The fix just arrived! Vickers Tactical™ & TangoDown, Inc.™ announce the +2 Magazine Extension for the Glock® 42.
Injection molded of the same durable material used in the magazine body itself, the extended floorplate shape was designed to comfortably accommodate a proper firing grip. With 2 additional rounds on board, ammunition capacity is now 8 + 1 in the weapon. Also included is a new longer, smooth feeding heat-treated stainless steel spring, with 100% last round slide lock backs that are guaranteed.
The VTMFP-007/42 +2 Magazine Extension consists of Extended Floorplate, Floorplate Retainer, and Stainless Steel Spring. Kit converts 1 Glock® magazine.

G42 magazine extension
The packaging says it is to be installed by gunsmith. Wish the. Details had mentioned that piece of information. I had no trouble installing the magazine extension, even though I am not a professional gunsmith. So far it function just fine. Will check it out on my next trip to the range.

Trust Vickers for a good product
I bought these based on the Vickers name and was not disappointed. Fits well and feels good. Really tough to get the last round in, but so far it does feed well.

What I needed
As expected, easy install, 16 is better than 12!

Love the TandoDown Vickers accessories
These go on every Glock I own, I love them. Very easy to install, and the extra power spring really helps feed ammo well -- no issues whatsoever.

These are a must have for the G42. They increase your grip surface area and add 2 rounds, but they don’t really decrease the concealability. The extensions are solid and we’ll make. They come with a slightly longer magazine spring. Very high quality at a very low price. I’ll definitely be coming back to shop here.

Purchased this item to have full hand-grip. Used it first time yesterday and it does create a full-grip for the Glock 42. I was, however, only able to load comfortably 7 rounds into three of the four magazines. Possibly because the spring is new. Still, it does what I wanted it to do and seven rounds is sufficient for me. Having this full-grip will allow me to use this handgun as EDC rather than purchasing a newer Glock 43X or Glock 48, both of which have the larger handle grip that iI want.
