Anyone know if anyone other than Zev is making a gen 5 19 magwell yet? Google hasn’t been much help. Thanks

I have asked Agency Arms several times if they will make a Gen5 magwell, also for the main purpose of covering the cutout. That would give you a metal magwell that protects the bottom of the grip with the bonus of NO cutout. They said they will see what the market demand is. Their Gen4 magwell is perfect. Everyone should call them and request them ASAP. :flag:

Nah, I just like a magwell anyway. I see that dawson makes one as well now.

does it solve the reload mag snag problem? I think this is a huge deficiency with the G17/19 Gen5, and it's the only reason I have not bought one yet.
Just curious, have you actually done any reload drills with a Gen5? I first heard of this issue in the mrgunsandgear YouTube review of the Gen5 Glock 19. I had my Gen5 Glock 19 for months previous to seeing his review. The cut out, at least for me, is a non issue. I even deliberately tried to make the loaded mags hang up. The loaded mag part is key in my experience. An unloaded mag seems to catch on the front cutout a bit. A loaded mag doesn’t catch the cutout. What was a consistent issue for me is the cut out on the back of the mag well. I solved that with a Gen 4 grip plug I had laying around.

just got my gen5 19 and while the cutout did not bother my pinkie when shooting or reloading, i do feel that combined with the hole in the back of the grip, it gives the gun a unfinished look. i'd love a affordable magwell that is not crazy big. Just enough to cover the cut out and hole in the back of the grip. I wish magpul would come out with a gen5 version. i think theirs would be perfect. and it's affordable.
