Excellent product
Not for sale to California residents. A courtesy email will be sent to CA residents who place an order for a base pad that has the capability of taking a magazine past ten rounds. Ultimately a refund will be issued. CA residents can only purchase +0 base pads and GLOCK 43 and GLOCK 42 base pads. The 43 and 42 base pads do not take the mag capacity past ten rounds.
The pin set screws are set with Loctite® at the specific tension we recommend, and will generally never need an adjustment. Tightening the base pad screw is not recommended and may be difficult because the screw is set with Loctite®; trying to force the set screw to turn could result in stripping the screw. We do not warranty base pads for stripped heads on set screws or pins lost in result of tampering with the set screw.

When installing the TTI base pad:
The Taran Tactical Innovations CZ base pad adds 4 extra rounds to the CZ 17/18 round magazines, making the 17/18 round Mec-Gar magazines capable of holding 21 rounds in the magazine and 1 in the chamber. The TTI CZ base pad, just like all of our base pads are designed to give you the edge over your adversaries. We use our patented push pin design to lock the base pad to the magazine, which makes for easy field stripping and cleaning between stages. Just push the down the pin, slide the base pad onto the magazine and push the pin up to lock the base pad onto the magazine. Our one piece design is great because there are no extra parts or tools needed to attach the base pad to your magazine. The base pad itself is machined out of billet aluminum and is hard anodized to ensure durable long lasting color. All machining and manufacturing is done in the USA.

It's a good product, but it won't fit the factory CZ 17/18 round mags, which are Mec-Gar. Too bad.
Some time ago I decided I wanted to expand the capacity of my stock magazines. Shortly after starting my search I was between this and another less expensive product sold by a competitor. In this case I got what I paid for. The less expensive "industrial grade polymer" base pads were actually 3D printed which I originally thought was neat. But it turns out a base plate that's 3D printed from the bottom up with horizontal layering is weak when faced with the sheer downward stress a full magazine follower spring applies. Less than 5 months into owning them I opened a case and out popped a base plate and some bullets. Turns out the channel that the magazine lip rests in broke off. The competitor apologized and promptly sent me replacement assuring me that it was a one off. A day or two later I thought it a good idea to thoroughly inspect the others and what do you know; another base pad was well on it's way to breaking in the same fashion. So in 5 months I had 2 catastrophic failures out of the five I bought. This was alarming considering I used this product on my edc back-up magazine. I immediately righted my wrong by replacing every single one with the more expensive Taran product you see here. I paid for my mistake, but thankfully not with my life! If you're between this high quality milled aluminum base pad and some "industrial grade polymer" crap, I strongly encourage you not to make the same mistake I did. You get what you pay for and unless you're talking about a range or safe queen, those dollars aren't worth saving in this category.
