base plates with pinky extensions(HK)

[TheCanuck]

Where can i find base plates with pinky extensions for my 9mm HK USP mags?

well, that is a problem. The .45 mags come with those for the tactical. The 10rd OEM mags all come with flat base plates, which can not be replaced with the curved extended base plates, as they do not fit the same way. The regular capacity mags can take either flat or curved base plates. So, I can only suggest you get some pinned mags, or mag bodies you can pin to 10rd before assembly.

oh, too bad i just ordered 5 from wolverine.

Weird because they fit just fine on the P2000 mags we have at work, and they are not pinned mags

Let me know if they fit (the ones you ordered from Wolverine)......yours at work are full capacity mags. The bodies of the civilian 10rd mags (not pinned, just constructed to only hold 10rds), have a different construction for attaching the base plate....I will up load a picture.

If they dont fit, I'll try and see if i can make them fit

i ordered some and they do not work /w the 10 round mags, as the mag bodies are missing the lip at the base so that the new bases can slide in.

You must have pretty big hands to need those extensions on a fullsize USP.

I find they are great for making sure the mag is seated during a speed reload,...it acts as a bumper pad.

And they look a whole lot better too.

The regular 'high cap' bases will fit on Promag USP mags. Yeah, Promags kinda suck, I know.
