170mm mags

Recommended Posts

So I am planning an Open XDm for USPSA, and so I am looking at 170mm mags. Am I correct that the Pistol Gear extensions are my only choice. Anyone know of other options that may be available before spring of 2015?

I am planning this to be a winter time build so I am not in a hurry for a 170 mag or 2

A weld up of two tubes would be the better option, the stock base pad could be used and a Gram's 13 coil spring and his follower will give the max capacity.

What would something like that hit me for Rich?

I have been using the Pistol Gear 170mm extensions, in 40 S&W, for 3 years now. Capacity is 25 rounds, with the Gram's spring and follower. The slide will not lock open, on an empty magazine, with the Gram's follower. But then, if I run a mag empty (shooting open) I have screwed up anyhow!
