kk4364 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 As the title says, does anyone have any experience with the Glock MBX base pads. I am talking about the ones for 140mm extensions . They say add 5 to full size Glock magazines in 40 s&w. I have a Zev KC edition Glock 35, with Zev aluminum magwell, and want to know if these will work.

mont1120 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I have not used the MBX on my back up Gen34 in CO, but when I shot L10 using an STI, the MBX basepads are all I used, They went on and off super easy, fit perfectly well, and were a breeze to clean. They use a small blocking pin to keep them on the mag bottom. If they made them for CZ, I would have used them. Since they did not, I went with the TTI basepads, and they are very similar to the MBX system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJM Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I bought two 140mm MBX base pads and they only hold 20 rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72stick Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 On another thread I talk about my experience with the MBX extensions. I let them set overnight with 20 and mine will hold 21 rounds, but I don't think mine will lock into the grip with 21. There's no room left to compress the spring. They are easily 20 reloadable .40SW mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertg5322 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 On Glocks I've had the best luck with the Arredondo extensions. Not pretty, not Gucci, not bling, but they work and get +5 in .40 & +6 in 9mm. That's 20 loadable in .40 & 23 loadable in 9mm. The ones I have I've owned since 2008 or so, started on a G35 Limited gun, now they're on a G17 CO gun. Never an issue with them. Easy to clean (though I don't) and affordable.

Aircooled6racer Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Hello: Why not get the Glock factory 22 round magazines? I have used Arredondo, Dawson, TTI and Zev. All work very well. I have not tried them for 40S&W yet but have used them for 9mm. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Glock factory 22 round magazines are far too long for use in Limited Division, about 165 mm. With a short aftermarket base pad like the one from Taylor Freelance, they will easily make 171.25 mm for use in Open as a big stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kk4364 Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 I went with Dawson's figured if it's not broken dont fix it. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
