There are some aftermarket 27-round mags for the Glock 21, but I don't trust
them.  I also have a 30 (my CC weapon) and the 21 mags are interchangeable
with it, which is cool, but in the 30 they feel like i'm holding a broom.
(The standard-cap mags for the 30 are 10-rounders).  Both of mine are Gen3 
models.
