Strike Industries EMPG43B Enhanced Polymer Magazine Plate with Extra Gripping Surface for Glock 43 (Adds 2 Rounds, Black Finish)

The Strike Industries EMPG43B Enhanced Polymer Magazine Plate is a straightforward upgrade for Glock 43 shooters who want more rounds and better control. This extended magazine plate adds 2 rounds to your Glock 43 magazine, bringing capacity from 6+1 to 8+1 — a meaningful boost for a subcompact carry gun without changing the fundamentals of what makes the platform work. The black finish matches standard Glock aesthetics and wears like any factory component.

What sets this plate apart is the thinking behind it. The wider grip surface extends your hand's real estate on the magazine, letting you get a fuller, higher grip that translates to better recoil control and faster follow-up shots. On a compact pistol where every millimeter of grip counts, that extra finger space genuinely matters for accuracy and handling. The design isn't fussy — no snags, no sharp edges — it just slides into the magwell like it belongs there.

This is the kind of accessory that Glock 43 carriers and range shooters often overlook until they try one. If you run a G43 for concealed carry or sport shooting, the capacity bump alone justifies the addition. Add in the ergonomic gain, and you're looking at a low-cost way to make your carry gun feel more controllable and capable. It's one of those small upgrades that sticks around once you run it.
