CustomSpeed basepad - silver
Magazine basepad designed specifically for use with our P226 SAO/X-Five CustomSpeed magwells.
Material / color: silver hardcoat anodized aluminum.
Calibers: 9mm or .40.
More reliable reloads. Ergonomic fit provides shooters with a better grip when grabbing a fresh magazine.
Extends slightly below the magwell for secure engagement, while remaining IDPA legal (unlike Mec-Gar’s PLUS 2, which makes a P226 exceed the maximum height allowed by IDPA rules).
Fit: This basepad is designed to fit and extend appropriately past CustomSpeed magwells. If used without a magwell there will be a slight gap between the bottom of the frame and the basepad. For flush mount without magwells please refer to our X5-style basepads.
Magazine compatibility:
- Mec-Gar 18-round (9mm) or 13-round (.40) P226 magazines are required. (sold in the Magazines product category)
- 15-round (9mm) P226 magazines and 19-round X5 magazines ARE NOT COMPATIBLE (their body is too short) as the mag catch will not engage.
- This is not a capacity extension basepad.
- Can NOT be assembled on state compliant 10-round magazines.
Assembly:
- Take an empty magazine
- Slide the original magazine basepad out (be careful not to let the spring jump out)
- Slide the CustomSpeed magazine basepad back in
