    A Newbie question


    I have a G22 and I am looking for magazine baseplates that have the half round to fill in the the hole on the grip. Any help on what this type of baseplate is called and where I can get some would be greatly appreciated.

    Never heard of them. Question though. Why not just buy a plug?

    Pearce Grip Enhancer Magazine Base Pad Glock Compact, Full Size - MidwayUSA

    That's the one for full metal lined 9/40/357/45GAP magazines. A few of the full size frames were made without that cut-out, so if you have one of those frames remember that a magazine with this floorplate won't fit into it until you change the floorplate.

    Me too. Do they really give you that much of a edge? I mean, they cover the hole in front, which I hadn't paid any attention to until this thread. What does that do for the shooter that warrants $10 for the base pad? Outside of personal preference etc. etc. what is it supposed to do?

    I have big hands and the way my little finger sits when I fire the G22 is not pleasent, one of the mags that I have that fills the hole is just alot more comfortable to shoot and worth the money to me. Its just a personal thing. By the way thanks for the link voyager4520.

    good thread. i've always wondered if there was such thing but i've never been curious enough to ask about it. i couldn't see any advantages with this. also, i would assume that this is only for target shooting as i woudn't trust it being in my gun when the time arises where i need to change mags in a snap.
