pearce grip exstention on cm/pm9

[timmy]

Anybody have any problems with the pearce grip exstentions on their 6 round mags

I have em....They will make the gun print a little more. The extension will give more surface area to help dislodge the base plate on your mag during multiple mag dumps in training scenarios. I do have a fix for that though.


Other than that they do help with controlling muzzle flip.

I use one at times and it works fine. It will increase printing.

No problems. But I ground mine down to about half size. There's enough remaining to keep my pinky from dangling. I wasn't so much concerned with printing...I think it looks better. Just an idea.

B4 .... what brand of slide holster is that. Looks very simple and effective.

You're a genius. Ground mine down too. I have small hands so I can get all 3 fingers on the grip now and the printing impact is negligible.

David, in your picture it appears that your slip on grip is covering the magazine release a little. This could impede a mag change in a SHTF incident. You might want to modify that grip to preclude the possibility.

Great idea on grounding down the extensions...is printing much worse when they are ground down compared to no extension? I may be purchasing some extensions and doing that same thing...What works best to ground them?

Muggsy - the mag release is on the other side and not impeded; I generally don't carry a spare mag anyway; 7 better be enough [EDIT - Muggsy is right, it is a little more difficult to remove the magazine with the grip so low. I prefer the grip that way and don't carry a spare mag so it should be okay]

rk - I pocket carry with a flap on the holster so there's very little impact on printing; I used my bench grinder and some sandpaper

Mugs is talking about the other side where the release would protrude being somewhat blocked.
Interesting slide serrations

It will have no effect on mag release as is but it is nice that a fellow member is looking out for each other.

Yes, I realized that after I posted. Muggs knows what he's talking about. The mag release button isn't affected but the grip being so low does make it a little more difficult to remove the magazine. Since I don't carry a spare mag its really not an issue for me.

I did a little more work on the magazines.
