Glock 43X/48 – Shield Arms S15 Steel Magazine Catch
PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK DETAILS AND FITMENT BEFORE PURCHASE.
The Shield Arms S15 steel magazine catch is designed for Glock 43X and Glock 48 pistols running Shield Arms S15 steel magazines.
This is the part that keeps the S15 setup honest. Shield Arms specifically recommends steel-on-steel when using their S15 mags. Running steel mags on the factory plastic catch can cause wear, retention problems, or magazines that do not drop free.
