salilus Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I picked up a P16 in a trade that came with 7 mags with the DP extended base pads and a DP magwell. I am looking to make it a crossover gun from limited to IDPA ESP. I am having trouble finding a basepad that will fit that magwell and also fit the IDPA box. Does anybody know if STI\SVI basepads will fit a Para tube? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwx40x40 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I am thinking Arrendondo makes a base pad that will work. It is wedge shaped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny7 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) I have a couple a few ( 4 I think) of the stock ones I can trade you for one of your Dawson extended magpads if they are the +3 ones and they will fit a P14-45. John McKenzie They have been modified to fit my magwell but if your pistol has a magwell they would need to be modified anyway.

salilus Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 I have the original pads that the mags came with. I was just worried that if I removed enough material for it to fully seat reliably, then I would do a speed unload during a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny7 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Not shooting IDPA I am not too sure about that one. I know that I have pinched the heck out of my hand with a magwell and a modified stock pad. Have a great day! Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salilus Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 Thanks Johnny, I managed to get the stock pads to fit after a lot of careful sanding. Now I just need to put it in the box and see if I have any extra room for a glue on slam pad so I dont pinch my hand like you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParaGunner Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 After modifying my factory basepads I attached some .25" brass pieces to my factory basepads to help seat them and the weight helps them fall out too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirpy Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Weight would be illegal for IDPA (unless the rules have changed) but OK for USPSA. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
