oldfrank Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Not thinking clearly I ordered one of these and installed it on a Glock Long magazine 31 rounds I think. It works great and with no problems but it is really long. Will it only work on the 31 round magazine? Can I install it on a 17 rounder? Does it require a new spring and is one available. Local matches I shoot almost always have a mandatory magazine change in a regular stage and I don't need that big of a magazine. Thanks! Link to comment
Silverscooby27 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 You can definitely install it on a 17 round mag. You need a new spring, you can most likely call MBX or email MBX and get one. Link to comment
RocketRyan Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I would keep it assembled as a big magazine, and maybe purchase some PMAG GL9 as your reload mags. They are far easier to clean and will handle the abuse better. Link to comment
oldfrank Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 Thanks, I do have some big Pmags so may just keep this one as a SHTF at home tool. Thanks! Link to comment
RocketRyan Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I try not to make it a habit of removing my large basepads since it tears up the plastic basepad lips on the oem glock tubes. Link to comment
Walli Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 https://mbxextreme.com/index.php?page=PCC_Glock_Extension_Basepads#megadual MBX "Dual Purpose" Mega extension for Glock Style Magazines Now offering the "Dual Purpose" Mega extension. The MBX Mega extension has been a very popular product used on the Glock style 31 round tube, but we have seen a use for it to be used on a Glock style 17rd short tube. This gives the user options of capacity and overall length to suit their personal liking. When used on a short 17rd tube, it gives you 43 rounds. We have engraved capacity witness lines and reference numbers for both short and long tubes. Comes with a 22-coil spring specifically to be used with the 17rd tube with the option upon checkout to purchase an additional 28-coil spring so you can use it on both short and long tubes.
