kwelhand Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 I brought Taylor Freelance Fattie Magwell & mag extension for my RIA Tac Ultra after watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ0yufKNzLc Unfortunately, Taylor Freelance mag extension doesn't fit with their magwell. After searching for hours, it seems like I have to modify the frame or magwell but couldn't find any instruction how. Does anyone know what I have to modify in order make both work on my RIA? The magwell fits great but obviously mag w/ extension wouldn't lock up. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben53 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 I think I'd call Taylor Freelance and see what they have to say about it. My guess is that they will be able to get you going very quickly. I have a RIA PRO Match Ultra HC (.40 cal) and have been considering doing what you've done so I'd be interested in reading your response from Taylor and the solution to your issue. Good luck!

Aiden Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Did your gun come with a magwell from the factory? Which version of the magwell did you buy from TF? This might be relevant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might be relevant? Yeah, I read that too... mine came with a magwell and it's just std Tac Ultra FS HC. I read many people successfully modified and installed it but no one shared the instruction or video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiden Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Are you using the "Tall" Fattie magwell? The "Tall" version requires you to use longer mag tubes to prevent baseplates from hitting. Your magwell is "RI-MWT" which makes me think it's the Tall version. If your factory RIA came with a magwell, you already have a cut back frame. So I'm guessing you'll need the standard Fattie magwell, not the Tall. Pretty sure those are marked "RI-MW"https://taylorfreelancestore.com/rock-island-fattie-speed-well-aluminum/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
