TBRCi Releases Micro Magwell for Glocks Gen 1-3
I’m not sure if Glock enjoys the fact that so many of its customers select the previous generation of its products or it loathes it. Most companies that release new products tend to quickly move past the previous generation, but good ol’ “perfect” Glock seems to believe that the new Gen 4 may not be “perfect” by keeping the Generation 3 guns in full-rate production.
As such, accessory companies have often been skipping the latest generation with their development for accessories. Latest is Texas Black Rifle Company, or TRBCi, who has released a snazzy little carry magazine well for the Generation 1-3 glocks. Named the “Micro Magwell” the new product is exactly that, a small accessory for adding just a bit more “flare” for easy reloading while not excessively changing the pistol’s shape. Thus, a flared magwell is a potentially good option for EDC.
Construction is of the usual high-speed, low-drag materials. The body is 7075-T6 aluminum with the military standard type 3 hard coat anodizing to keep the magwell black under the most rigorous insertions. The Mico Magwell is compatible only with the 9mm offerings including the 17, 19, 23, and 32.

I was thinking I might need one until I got to the price. $87.50? Seriously? That's roughly one fifth of what a new Gen 4 Glock 17, 19, or 26 with tritium sights and 3 mags sells for at GT Distributors. Not sure why the "Texas Black Rifle Company" believes such a minor aftermarket part that at most might cost 3 or 4 bucks to produce would ever be in such demand that anyone other than a very small finite number of suckers with more money than good sense will actually buy a product with a two to three thousand percent markup. Surely that must be a typo and the correct price is $8.75 or maybe $18.75?
$75...
