I just installed the pearce +2 grips on my factory glock mags for the g26, and it still only holds 10 rounds, I dont wanna sound like a noobie, but can u install these things wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys.

A couple of other things to look into: 1) Check the generation of magazine you have. I don't know about mags for the Glock 26, but in the past Glock have produced at least 3 generations of magazine for my Glock 22, and the newer ones (drop-free, with a steel insert) are a much tighter squeeze to fit the rounds into. Glock may even have done some BS modification to prevent people in AWB states from extending the mags illegally ? 2) Push the last round in REALLY HARD with a mag loader... some people struggle with their fingers alone. 3) You can always increase capacity by trimming coils off the mag spring. If you switched to an extra power Wolff spring you might be able to lose still more spring before reliability becomes an issue. I'm not sure I would do this on a CCW piece, as you never know what modifying the spring will do to its working life. I would call Pearce. I can't help too much, as I have mans wrists and thus carry a Glock 27 in 40S&W  , which of course only goes +1 with the extension.

Thanks stealthy, when i pushed on the magloader really hard it almost fit into it but i noticed the lips of the mag were starting to bend outwards . yeah , youre right about cutting the coil if i use it as my CCW( which is what it is) i guess ill just settle for the 11 rounds, also nice comment about the mans wrists
