cheby Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I have to buy 10rd mags. What base pads should I use with mecgar 10rd mags so the gun fits the Production box?I am currently using the springer precision pads with 17rd mecgar mags. I hope I can use the same pads with the 10rd mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will need the pads that fit on the stock 16 round mags from the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check out Gregcotellc.com, you'll notice that there are two versions of a 10 round magazine for the CZ 75. The version that has the blue follower, which is the Mecgar aftermarket mag, looks to be the same tube as their 17 rounder. They are also way cheaper than the factory version. Good luck.

eerw Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 The Mecgar 10rnd mags, use a full tube and use same lock plate and pad as the mecgar 17 and the CZ plated 17 mag. We are doing this pad for the CZ plated 17rnd mag, MecGar 10rnd, MecGar 17rnd mag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they fit the 17 round Mecgars, they should also fit the 15 rounders by Mecgar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheby Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 Looks like the pads for the 10rd and 17rds Mecgars are the same. Great! Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheby Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 BTW, are there any reliability issues with 10rd Mecgars compared to 17rd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only difference between the 17 rounders and the 10 rounders are that the mag body has a small dimple on the 10 rounders so you cannot load passed 10. Otherwise, it's the same mag.

Tube length is different on the 16 mags from the 10, 15, 17 mecgar mags and the lockplate has a different pin location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
