    Tap & Rack Glock 26

    What methods, during a clearing procedure, do people utilize to "Tap" the bottom of the magazine on a Glock 26 without a magazine extension (10 round mag)? One of the my fingers hang below the magazine impeding a normal "Tap".

    I am assuming its your pinky finger that you speak of. I have large hands so I just extend my pinky to do the tap. If that doesn't work for you,might install a +0 Pearce on your mags. Not a magazine extension that adds rounds but aids in griping. Good luck.

        You must not have taken a Front Sight course. They teach that drill and more.

          No, he is right. It says so on their LOGO.

                Step 1: Sell the Glock 26
                Step 2: Buy a Glock 19.

                    Or even cheaper run the 26 with 19 mags with Xgrip spacers.

                      You shoot a 26 with pinky’s extended anyway. Let’s the bad guy know your super serious.

                        Unless you have mongaloid hands, get your pinky off the mag well and do a normal tap rack. I’ve carried a 26 for 5 years. It’s how I do it.

                          Related: I find that without a concious effort to get my pinky off the gun the mags won't drop free on the 26. It's one of the main reasons I don't see it offering anything my 19 can't do better.

                              I use my support hand thumb to seat the mag. Or re-seat as needed.
                              Don't take the "tap" literally. Re-seating the mag on sub compacts just needs more deliberate action. Just can't use the heal of your [emoji112] 's.
