Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for pre-ban Glock magazines, so it is not a universal fit for all Glock magazine types.
- The extended +5 configuration increases magazine length to 140mm, which adds capacity but also adds bulk compared with standard base pads.
- The package is specific to 9mm/.40 S&W use for the stated round increases; the 10mm/.45 ACP version is larger and not interchangeable by the same sizing.
- Installation and removal are supported with the supplied compression tool, so setup is more involved than a simple drop-in base pad.
