Shooter212 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 My dad picked up a 16 40 and does not shoot it very much. I am thinking about playing around with this for a limited set up. I have found that mags are hard to find and some wont work with basepads. I am curious if sti mags can be made to work with a little tinkering.

ryan45kim Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Yes STI mags can work in a Para P-16. worst case is you might have to get a new mag catch to hold the STI mags at the proper height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailorkarl Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 My Para likes SVI mags better than the STI ones. The STI's sit higher in the frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
