Distant Thunder Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I believe Dawson Precision makes base pads for the Chip McCormick 8 round Power Mags. You can check at dawsonprecision.com to see if they have what you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I run those basepads on CMC Powermags in my Sig Max that has a Dawson ICE standard gap magwell and it works perfectly.

With the base pad I showed above they stick past the mag well enough to be certain the mag seats! Do the Dawson’s do the same and stick below a little?

Thank you I forgot to check last night, but I think they are basically flush with the magwell when seated. I've never had an issue with seating mags though. I will confirm tonight.

thormx538 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 The front of the pad is flush with the magwell, and the rear sits about 0.250" proud. You can see the angle of them in the picture on Dawson's site pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpcorps Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 I've always used the Dawson base-ads above with my Dawson maxwells - never had a seating issue and both Gap and No Gap work well as long as you pair them. The hardest part is selecting the right based pad for your mag tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you the Dawsons are made to stick past their ICE mag well about as far as possible while still fitting the SS box, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
