Rolex Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) OK- just starting into PCC- using the Cotl/Brownell 32 round mags and a TF plus 10. Are mag wells allowed- cant find any info on that- If so what have you used and does it help if a reload is necessary? PS: using a Hann Block in an AR15 lower- Thanks Edited April 6, 2017 by Rolex Link to comment

The only firearm restrictions are listed in the PCC appendix: https://www.uspsa.org/uspsa-rules.php There may be others available but this one got me through a classifier match and several speed shoots: https://taccom3g.com/product/taccom-magazine-funnel/ Edited April 6, 2017 by ChuckS Link to comment
Flatland Shooter Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Depending on the brand of lower, bmiller on the forum may be making aluminum magwells that fit. I have one of his prototypes on a PSA Glock magazine lower. Very sturdy and the fit is perfect. In the case of a clumsy old guy, it helps with speed reloads. Bill Link to comment
Rolex Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 The lower is Spikes AR15 standard lower. Link to comment
Fallout556 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 There are a lot more out there now. Any new reviews or recommendations? Link to comment
Fallout556 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Also do any of the long term owners out there think the magwell is worth is? Link to comment

I’ve went back and forth with the idea of a magwell on a PCC and with how often reloads happen and how much you think you’ll save yourself on average per reload, it is more of a “looks cool” part than anything. just my opinion.

I know several guys who run them because pcc is what they do in the off season and don't dry fire them much. For them it really helps with the beercan grip on classifieds and such. I think if you dry fired with it regularly it would be less necessary Link to comment
HoMiE Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Definitely helps on the classifiers with mandatory reloads. Link to comment
MoRivera Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) I use the Stern Adapter for Glock Mags, which has been very reliable, and I've even gotten used to the unconventional location of the mag release. My only gripe was that the magwell was pretty narrow and changes could be finicky. Definitely an issue in my state which has a 'high capacity' ban. But Stern now makes an attachable flared well made from delrin, and it works very well. Obviously only works with the Stern adapter, but if anyone was thinking of going that way it has the option now. Edited December 30, 2018 by MoRivera Link to comment

There’s nothing wrong with buying parts cuz you like them. Link to comment

Fallout556 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Does the TTI mpx magwell work with glock mags or lowers other than the mpx? Link to comment
Fallout556 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Has anyone tried the TACCOM magwell? Link to comment
MemphisMechanic Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 If taccom still makes a 3D printed plastic one, avoid it. Gets so soft that it’s like rubber in the summer heat. Watched a buddy knock his clean off the gun with a mag during a reload. If they make something else? Might be good. Link to comment

I had another 3D printed magwell that didn’t last that long. I’m now running a deralin magwell from techwell which doesn’t seem prone to come apart like some of the printed versions. Link to comment

Shadyscott999 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Shooting Sports Innovations was the first and remains the best magwell for the MPX. That "printed" magwell is printed on a $150,000 sintered metal printer. There are several thousand of the SSI magwells out there in the wild and not a single one has ever been returned.

I think you mean “Classifier Nationals.” Not to be confused with previous year’s Seated Start Nationals and Port Shooting Nationals. Always some sort of theme. Accidentally. Link to comment
