ModernMusket Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Hey All, I can't seem to find a specific rule, and have heard conflicting opinions from fellow shooters. Is it legal to modify mags to fit in the mag gauge, and if so is there a limit to what can be done? I have heard of guys filing down baseplates minorly, but what about cutting corners off. I have a few CZ P10F mags with +2 factory baseplates that don't quite fit the gauge. Would it be legal to chop a little off of the corner of the baseplate to allow the mag to get flush to the rear of the gauge? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapribek Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Yes, I believe you can do any mod you want to make a mag fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few 170's that have the feed lips ground off a little to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schutzenmeister Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Absolutely! Just remember ... If the equipment check is in the middle of the match, and you have already been using a too long mag, you may be screwed. Get it done before your first rounds go down range.

broadside72 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Get new basepads. My Hennings +3 on the factory 19 rnd P10F mags fit the gauge with a tiny bit of room leftover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CZ +2 basepads become +3s when you shave down the follower's legs and the spring takes a set from use. 60 grit sandpaper applied to bevel the rear edge until they fit the gage. A lot cheaper than 40 bucks a pop from Henning or anyone else and come off without tools as a bonus. Same thing with my Glock basepads. While everyone is spending 30 - 40 bucks each I spend 22 bucks on Strike Industries +5 polymer EMPs and they fit the gage without issues.
