Jeff686 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 So, I've got Henning's 141 pad for my Gold Team. They work fine, and I'm happy with it. However, I can't figure out how to gracefully remove it. The spring is solidly in the base, and sliding the base off is almost impossible. I tried using a tool to compress the spring after partially removing the pad. No good. How do you guys get the pads off? I'm tempted to drill a hole in it, and add a thin plate inside the base pad, similar to the stock bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In there is a video "Load bid stick mags". In there he shows how to dis-assemble and re-assemble a mag with the 140 pad. Hope this helps.

Just slide the thing forward till you can take it off. The spring is supposed to bend. I don't think you are going to hurt it. It would be nice not to have to use an allen wrench to get the pad off. Similar to a lot of STI pads. (Henning that's a hint) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff686 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 OK, now I see. I've just been afraid of using a little muscle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
