Description

EGW® Tombstone Magazine Release Paddle - Serrated

The EGW® Tombstone Serrated Magazine Release Paddle extends the magazine release surface toward the shooter's hand, making the release easier to reach without requiring as much change in grip position.

Its distinctive Tombstone profile provides a larger contact surface than a standard magazine catch button, while the serrated face gives the thumb a positive surface during magazine changes.

The paddle is machined from aluminum, providing a rigid extended release surface without adding unnecessary weight to the pistol.

Installation requires a magazine catch that is drilled and tapped 4-40. The required 4-40 paddle screw is included and uses a T-10 Torx drive.

Reach the Magazine Release with Less Grip Movement

Depending on hand size and grip position, a standard magazine release can require the shooter to rotate the pistol slightly in the hand to reach the release comfortably.

The Tombstone paddle extends the usable release surface toward the shooter's hand, making the magazine release easier to reach while maintaining a more consistent grip.

This makes the paddle well suited to competition, range, and custom pistol builds where fast, consistent access to the magazine release is important.

Serrated Contact Surface

This version of the Tombstone paddle features a serrated face.

The machined serrations provide additional texture for the thumb, giving the shooter a positive contact surface when pressing the magazine release.

Machined Aluminum Construction

The Tombstone paddle is machined from aluminum, providing a rigid extended release surface without adding unnecessary weight to the pistol.

The lightweight construction makes it well suited for competition and performance-oriented builds where additional release surface is desired without adding a heavy control to the pistol.

4-40 Mounting System

The Tombstone paddle attaches to the face of a compatible magazine catch using the included 4-40 paddle screw.

The magazine catch must be drilled and tapped 4-40 before the paddle can be installed.

The included paddle screw uses a T-10 Torx drive for installation.


PAIR IT WITH AN EGW® 4-40 MAG CATCH

EGW® offers drilled and tapped magazine catches that use the same 4-40 paddle thread, including drilled and tapped Springfield Prodigy® mag catches. The Tombstone paddle includes the required 4-40 paddle screw.

Installation & Compatibility

Before ordering, verify that your magazine catch is drilled and tapped 4-40.

The included 4-40 paddle screw passes through the Tombstone paddle and threads directly into the face of the compatible magazine catch.

Use a T-10 Torx driver to install the included paddle screw.

After installation, verify that the paddle is securely mounted and does not interfere with the grip, trigger guard, holster, or normal operation of the pistol.

Because an extended paddle makes the magazine release easier to reach, always confirm that the paddle cannot be unintentionally activated during normal firing, handling, or holstering.


COMPATIBILITY NOTE

This paddle requires a magazine catch with a 4-40 threaded mounting hole. A standard unthreaded magazine catch will not accept the paddle without modification
