MetropolisLake Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 So I put my new Taran basepads on my G35 mags then go to seat them through the Dawson magwell. Basically what is happening is that the little stick/stopper thingy that keeps the base pads from sliding off the mag will hit the magwell and push it down. It's not tightened down so it will push it down to the point where it's almost flush with the top but not quite. Should I just tighten them down at that point, or take a drill/dremel to the plastic on the bottom of the magwell so the stopper thingy is up higher and more flush with the bottom?

Zoomy Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I would take a Dremel to the area in the magwell that the base pad retaining pin is coming in contact with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WidowsSon683 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Who makes a magwell that works with the TTI pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetropolisLake Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 I just called TTI about it. They said time to whip out the dremel, either cut a V-notch in the magwell or make it go up as far as it can then grind off the base of the pin. I guess I'll be cutting the magwell's plastic body and see how far that gets me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetropolisLake Posted February 15, 2014 Author Share Posted February 15, 2014 Dremel'ed it this morning, works fine. I was under the impression that I would have 20+1 shots with .40 though but I can only fit in 17. I guess I'll call back next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttolliver Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I haven't researched Glock mags, but I just put TTI mag extensions on a set of M&P 40 mags. A slight modification needs to be made to shorten the factory M&P followers so it can collapse deeply enough into the magazine to get the full round count. Maybe the same issue is at play with the glock mag.

EkuJustice Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Check out the YouTube video Dawson does about modifying glock followers. 17 is where it hangs if the follower needs to be modified as that's where the transition is from tube to extension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
