Canyon Creek Extended Magazine Release Button (pic request) - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Can someone post some good pictures of there Canyon Creek Extended Magazine Release Button. I'm thinking about buying one but from the pictures on Pistol-Gear it does not really look like it sticks out that much further than the factory. It might just be the angle of the picture. Good pictures and personal opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I don't have a pic but Rich did the extended release for me when he did my trigger and its well worth it. I have small hands and it provides significant help. Rich is also great to work with. Its really helped during IDPA matches.

Just measured mine and it extends approx. .225 inches from frame.

MCB,

I've got a couple more pics here:

The tutorial is well done and the replacement was a piece of cake. Oh yeah, and the release is great. It made a big difference for me on reloading.

Thanks a bunch for the pictures.

Is it just the angle or are both sides the same length? I ask because Old School's site says it's longer on one side.

Remember, there are two version. The original version had both sides extended. The current version has one side longer, allowing you to pick the side where you need the extra length.

The one pictured is the same length on both sides and is supposed to be IDPA legal. I did get it from Pistol-Gear by the way. Wife got it for me for Christmas.
