I'm always looking for ways to slim down the butt of my gun (including the magazine baseplates), not flare it out.
Looks great for duty, competition or range mags.
Not so great for CCW AIWB.

My first thoughts as well, I'd maybe pick up a couple for use during carbine classes or something for use with gloves.

Let the celebrity endorsement bashing begin in 3-2-1 .......

:D






.... and in case I was misunderstood .... my post was a joke, playing on the ribbing other celebs have taken lately over endorsements. I actually have Vickers products on my primary carry GLOCKs and a Costa mag catch on one of my M&Ps.

The H&K finger rest mags prevent you from getting a good finger index along the front of the magazine, how much do these floorplates overhang the front of the mag body?

btw: all my Glocks have Vickers mag releases and Hackathorn sights, so if it works I don't mind endorsed products.

A couple of minutes with a dremel on your stock mags could provide the same type of finger cutouts without the increased flare.

I choose to never alter factory Glock magazines. IMO they work fine in stock config and messing with them for 1 or 2 more rounds or in this case to improved "purchase" is probably not going to be something I consider.
