FTDMFR Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) All I want to do is to put a mag well on my new M&P so I can shoot it in ESP. That's it. The problem is, the stupid full-size 10-round restricted capacity magazines for the full size M&Ps are really just the M&P Compact magazine tubes with a giant ass floor plate to make up the difference length... ... and nobody makes base pads that can attach to these. So, no mag well for me. Edited May 22, 2015 by FTDMFR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkreutz Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I've never done it, but I think it would be possible to buy a SSS +0 base, cut off the part of the plastic that forms the "baseplate" on your picture, and then attach the +0 baseplate with a couple of screws. Then you could use their ESP magwell. I know it seems like a lot of work, but I think that's your only option. Have you contacted Taran Tactical? I seem to recall they were going to do something for the CA compliant mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBunniFuFu Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 It would be ugly but you could cut the lip off and just glue something to clear the magwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
explosivewhale Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Get some normal mags, block it off and throw on an extension. You'll be good to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bountyhunter Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) It would be ugly but you could cut the lip off and just glue something to clear the magwell. another option would be to cut a plate that fits the bottom lip out of something like plastic PC board material and glue it on the bottom using urethane glue or cyanoacrylate. That gives you a flat surface you could glue any kind of mag extender onto it that you wanted. BTW: are those mec-gar mags? They look just like the 10 round (restricted) that came standard with my CZ. Edited May 26, 2015 by bountyhunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have had stings in Nevada looking for "California plates" buying contraband material at gun shows and gun stores and nailing them hauling it back in.

JonSnow Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 If you permanently block them while you're out of state then you can import them since they aren't "high capacity" anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
