New to the Forum, Just got my SD9VE 2 days ago.
I've already installed a back plate on the slide (cosmetics)
and A tac light. As I am using this weapon for personal defense/recreational shooting. I am by no means a professional or claim to be.

I plan on installing an extended slide release.
However I have a question:


My hands are not that large, however I have a LITTLE bit of trouble reaching the mag release without moving my hand on the firearm. My question is: Do they make an extended mag release for this weapon?

Welcome to the forum.
I have never seen an extended mag release in the 20 years I have been owning these guns.
Extended Magazine Release
 
Right on to everyone who responded and thank you for the welcome!!! I guess there isnt but also, Jimmy-rigging something with super glue never hurt anyone! Haha
 
Welcome.

Personally, I have found that I can easily press the magazine release button without altering my grip by using my middle finger. Granted that it's unconventional, but it works so well for me, that I see no reason to replace it with an extended magazine release button.
That being said, mine is a last-gen SW40VE model, and I have bigger hands with longer fingers, so your mileage may very, but I figure that it's worth mentioning.
 
An extended magazine release and extended slide lock might cause more problems than not. With two handed forward grip, the extended slide lock might not lock back on the last round. As far as the mag release. Breaking your grip is fine to drop the magazine. Better than accidently pushing it with an extended mag release. Hope that helps......Before putting money into the pistol, get some training. You can them make a better decision. Congrats on your S&W and welcome from Texas.
