The Shield Arms Premium Magwell for Gen 5 Glock 19, 23 and 44 pistols is a competition-grade magazine well in black (brand part no. G19-MAGWELL-PRM-BLK). SHIELD ARMS gave it a large, optimized funnel to create a bigger target area for magazine insertion in USPSA, IPSC and steel matches. It is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum billet and finished with Type II anodizing. Unlike the low-profile Carry Magwell, this one favors maximum reload speed over concealment.
