Full-Size Capacity in a Subcompact Package
The CZ P10S is renowned as one of the most concealable 9mm pistols on the market, but its 10-round capacity has always been a compromise for serious carriers. The Shield Arms CZ P10S +5 Magazine Extension solves this capacity challenge by adding 5 crucial rounds to your P10S magazines, bringing total capacity to 15 rounds—matching many compact pistols while maintaining the P10S's superior concealability. Whether you're carrying concealed daily, need a high-capacity backup gun, or simply want to maximize your P10S's potential at the range, this extension delivers compact-class capacity without requiring you to carry a larger pistol.
Engineered specifically for the unique dimensions of the CZ P10S subcompact frame, this extension uses precision CNC-machined aircraft-grade aluminum construction to provide professional-grade durability in a package light enough for all-day carry. The hard anodized finish resists corrosion and wear, ensuring your extension looks and performs like new through thousands of rounds and countless draws from concealment. Unlike polymer extensions that can flex or crack under the stress of subcompact magazine springs, aluminum construction maintains dimensional stability and reliability under all conditions. The extension adds approximately one inch to your magazine length—enough to house 5 additional rounds while still keeping your overall package smaller than most compact pistols.
Installation is simple and reversible, requiring no permanent modifications to your magazines or pistol. Each extension includes all necessary hardware and allen wrenches for quick assembly. The design maintains the same spring and follower geometry as factory configuration, preserving the smooth, reliable feeding CZ pistols are known for. For concealed carriers who refuse to compromise on capacity, competitive shooters running subcompact divisions, or law enforcement officers carrying the P10S as a backup gun, this extension represents the best of both worlds—subcompact concealability with serious firepower. Join thousands of P10S owners who've discovered that you don't have to sacrifice capacity for concealability.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much capacity does this add to my P10S?
The Shield Arms extension adds 5 rounds to your CZ P10S magazine, increasing capacity from the standard 10 rounds to 15 rounds total. This gives you the same capacity as many compact pistols while maintaining your P10S's superior concealability.
Will this work with my P10C or P07 magazines?
No, this extension is designed specifically for the CZ P10S subcompact model only. The P10S has unique magazine dimensions that require a dedicated extension. For P10C or P07 pistols, you need our CZ P10C / P07 Magazine Extension.
How much does this add to the overall length of my pistol?
The extension adds approximately one inch to the bottom of your magazine. This extra length is necessary to house the 5 additional rounds while maintaining proper spring tension and reliable feeding. Your P10S will still be significantly more compact than most compact-size pistols.
Is this suitable for everyday concealed carry?
Absolutely. Many concealed carriers use this extension as their primary carry configuration, especially those who carry appendix or strong-side IWB. The extension adds minimal length while delivering 50% more capacity—a worthwhile trade-off for most serious carriers. You maintain subcompact concealability while gaining compact-class firepower.
Does the extension affect reliability or feeding?
No, the Shield Arms extension is engineered to maintain factory-level reliability. The design preserves the same spring and follower geometry as the original magazine configuration, ensuring consistent feeding and function. Thousands of P10S owners trust this extension for daily carry where reliability is non-negotiable.
How difficult is installation?
Installation is straightforward and takes just a few minutes. All necessary hardware and allen wrenches are included. Simply disassemble your magazine baseplate, install the extension with the provided hardware, and reassemble. No special tools or gunsmithing skills required. For visual instructions, visit our installation guides page.
Can I remove the extension if I want to go back to stock configuration?
Yes, installation requires no permanent modifications. You can easily remove the extension and return your magazine to factory configuration at any time. This makes it perfect for users who want flexibility—extended capacity for some situations and maximum concealability for others.
Are there magazine capacity restrictions I should know about?
Magazine capacity laws vary by jurisdiction. Some states and localities restrict magazines to 10 rounds or less, while others have different limits. It is your sole responsibility to ensure compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws. Shield Arms cannot provide legal advice specific to your location.
Why choose aluminum over polymer for a carry extension?
For concealed carry, durability is critical. Aluminum provides superior impact resistance compared to polymer—important when your magazine might be subjected to drops, impacts against hard surfaces, or sustained pressure during daily carry. Aluminum also maintains tighter dimensional tolerances over time, ensuring consistent reliability.
What's the difference between this and just carrying a P10C?
With the Shield Arms extension, your P10S maintains its shorter grip length and overall lighter weight compared to the P10C, making it easier to conceal and more comfortable for extended carry. The extension only adds length to the magazine, not the grip, so your pistol remains more concealable while achieving similar capacity.
Can I buy complete magazines with the extension already installed?
Yes! Our CZ P10S +5 Pre-Installed 9mm Magazine Extension includes a complete magazine with the extension already installed, tested, and ready to use—perfect for building your carry magazine inventory or if you prefer a ready-to-go solution.
