    I bought a compact complete dagger and a full size frame. The trigger on the full size frame is noticeably much more crisp and has a break and trigger pull much cleaner than the compact frame does. It's unfortunate because the compact feels better in my hand and totally disappears in my waistband

    Will 15 round mag work with mag extension on the s frame?

  • @VPTACTICAL

    @VPTACTICAL

    8 ай бұрын

    A 15 round magazine designated for the G19 aka Dagger Compact will not work in a S-Frame aka full size. I know that because I just tried one of my glock 19/dagger compact mags in the S-frame and it will not seat/lock-in. You'd need to pickup g17 magazines for the S-frame. That being said if you have a magwell on your pistol, most extensions should work with it, but depending on tolerances some might not or be a very tight fit. I hope this points you in the right direction! Thank you for the question/comment and I appreciate you being part of the squad. Be safe and stay vigilant!!

    The short of it is the majority if not all dagger slides will work on the compact frame. Obviously the smaller micro dagger slides will not be compatible with the compact or full size frame. They’ll only work with the micro frame. I hope this helps! You can always double check the description or contact PSA directly if you’re unsure. Be safe and stay vigilant 🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸.

    Everyone has their own favorite and or one they shoot with best. To each their own, nothing wrong with that. Crazy how a little weight added/removed, length/height, etc. makes such a big difference in the handling. I naturally prefer the larger guns, I think most folks do. I suppose it boils down to your purpose for it and other factors. All that being said I’m pumped for the micros to drop! I appreciate you being part of the squad - thanks for the comment.

    7 ай бұрын

    That’s a great question- Hand size can certainly play a role in gun selection, although I usually go based on purpose. The compact will be slightly easier to conceal, if your intent is carrying. Although with larger hands it may be on the smaller side for you. If it’s a range toy then go for the full size for sure. For you I’d start by sizing your hand on a compact gun vs full size and see what feels comfortable. Then consider your intended purpose and decide what’s most important to you. I know it’s a slightly ambiguous answer, that’s just simply due to the fact that every shooter is different. What’s great for me, may not be for a specific body build or type.
