View Full Version : Anyone use the Pierce pinky extension
I have them on 2 mags and I'm having issues with them. The mag wants to drop free while shooting. I have 2 other flush fit mags that work flawlessly. It must be the way its forcing me to hold the little guy thats causing me to inadvertently hit the mag release. Any thoughts? Thank you. Kevin.
Sorry, this is on a PM40.

On my G30 I can notice them wiggle at times as the magazine starts to empty. But other than that no issues. which gun are you using them on? Ive noticed that on my G27 that the mag release is shorter. But I havn't shot the gun yet so I can't tell if theres an issue there.
Its on a Kahr PM40. He had the extensions on the mags when I bought the gun used.

Had em. Took them off. Not sneaky enough.
Yea, the seller didnt keep the original flush floorplates, so I'm going to have to buy them if I cant get these to work.

I use them on 26 & 27 they shoot out just like the stock mags.

I have them, but took them off my Covert. Even with big hands I didn't like them. I just learned a different hand wrap and tucked my finger up and under. In short I just learned to shoot with the stock mag. Now I'm comfortable with it. Didn't make much of a difference to me as far as accuracy or control at SD range, and that is what I have mine for, not busting a 10 ring at 25 yards.
I've got 'em. Like them. Being able to get your pinky on the grip is a BIG plus for control and follow-up accuracy. I also carry with the 7 rounder in a lot of times. Never had a single issue period and have 8 rounds ready to go. Absolutely the best carry gun and I've bought and tried most of them.

i put one on my p-9 covert and the mag wouldn't go in far enough to seat. ended up belt sanding the top of the base pad and it works fine now.

Ditto here.
I don't need them with my CW9 but..........
I use pearse extension on all my G26 Magazines. Made a real difference in grip with your pinky added. Much more stable. Shoot much better with than without. As for pinching, if this occurrs simply round off top of extension slightly with very fine sand paper (150 - 220). Pinching happens with some people / it is caused by design of top edge of Pearse extension / sharp corner to it. I never had problem but my son did ...so I rounded extensions off.

Have them (+0) on a G26 mag; have had no problems, but have not shot that mag lots of times. At this point I seem to shoot the G26 stock mags just as well, and for more rounds I use a G17 mag with a sleeve.
In my PM9 I alternate 6 rounders and 7 rounders; at this point, if I bought more PM9 mags, I would just buy the super-reliable 6 rounders and -- as poster #7 wrote -- just tuck the little finger under the floorplate.

This was on PM9/MK9 Kahrs. Work fine for me on my G27.
