Yes...it is.

It is the same one that Todd Green is using, same PN.

The PICTURE on their website is different.  How do i know?  Well, i ordered that same item and yes, it IS the FBI catch.

As I posted above, they recently ordered nearly 3,000 GEN3 23's.

This thread is confusing the shit out of me.

There is some massive confusion here.

The original poster asked for a generation 4 extended mag catch for a .40 caliber weapon.  I linked to one.

The part that i linked to was originally created at the request of the FBI as per Todd Green and several other sources.  It IS an extended catch, it IS for the generation 4 guns and NOT the generation 3 pistols.

The article that you linked to is for a generation 3 catch i believe.  There is no specification in that article unless i skimmed over it.  Clarify if there is.  Also, please, lets not waste time debating semantics.  On the generation 4 pistol, the release that i linked to IS extended over the factory catch.  I dont care if it is medium, large, extra large or if its got perfectly round tits attached to it.  In my eyes, it is a nice piece of gear, it is extended and it works. :)

Does that clear up the confusion?

They dont use the generation 4 eh?  At all?

You know this for a fact?  With, absolute, 100% certainty?  Are you perhaps an Agent?

There is alot of information that is not public domain, alot of stuff that goes on behind the scene.

I tend to trust Mr Green as he has been involved in this industry for a VERY long time and quite frankly, the guy has ZERO reason to disseminate bad information.  What would *I* stand to gain by disseminating bad information?

The OP asked for an extended Gen 4 Catch, i provided him with a link to the same catch that Todd Green has labeled, in QUOTES, "FBI".  Whether the FBI uses it or not, at this point is up for debate and could go on endlessly so how about we agree to disagree and simply end this with a "ok, there is his extended catch, lets call it tiddlywinks the extendo catch for generation 4 Glock pistols".  I think the new name fits better...

....Friend of mine is FBI?

...WHAT FBI mag catch? His is stock....

Quoted:
It looks as though Mr. Green says, "It was requested by a federal agency", and simply calls it the "FBI" mag catch.

Quoted:


"Requesting" and "Taking Delivery" are 2 different things. Do not assume anything.

Cool story bro but the OP's talking about a mag release.
