Para Ordinance 20 round magazines

Duxman · April 2, 2007, 12:49 PM

Are there any Para Ordinance P16.40 20 round magazines or are they a myth of legend?

Also does anyone know where I can find baseplates that add +2 or +3 to the Para P16.40 magazine (15 rounds) or the Mec Gar?

Thanks.

All I found for my P16 were 16's. Four of those should get the attention of most folks.
Look in Brownell's to find what 'repair' parts you can buy. Maybe a spring, a follower, a base and a housing!

Since this gun is not really for HD - its for competition - I really need the extra rounds so I dont have to change mags during a stage. (unless required.)

I think Grams, Dawson and Arredondo all make + basepads and/or spring kits for the P-16. I have Grams pads (and apparently, followers) on my P-14 mags, and they now hold 18.

Rick do you have a URL for those pads?

Lots of guys are getting 21+1 with the Para P16 using Dawson pads and +1 followers. Dawson pads are the only way to fly!

Smith - do you have a URL for the followers / springs I should combine with Dawson?

Sorry I am new at this FrankenMagazine game.

Dux, call Chuck at www.shootersconnection.com and talk to him. He has all the parts you might need, and is a super nice guy. You won't be able to beat his prices either.
