    Will Taren Tactical, Hyve or Strike industries M&P Shield mag extensions work with the Samson Compact Magwell?
    Listed mag extensions will not work with the Samson Compact Magwell. The profile of these are the same size as the grip and are supposed to act like a grip extension, as well as a mag extension. Consequently, they will interfere with the inside profile of the magwell. The advantage of the Samson Compact Magwell over these product is that it is affixed to the pistol and keeps your hand from interfering with the magazine while dropping and empty mag.

    It also provides a modified shooting grip to significantly increase recoil management. Samson Carry Contour Magazine Extensions are a perfect solution to accompany the Samson Compact Magwell.

    This is a great product. But, to have it properly work and be sturdy I did fit it and permanently installed. As it came, it didn’t fit perfectly. It sat a bit too shallow against frame, had some significant wobble to it. But, I carefully sanded and filed bottom of gun frame to fit perfectly with no gaps or uneven fitting. Then I carefully drilled the front screw hole a bit deeper for a more secure fit, then permanently installed with JB weld in the back cavity, and all around the mating surface. All excess weld was wiped off. Now it is a perfect seamless for that is totally solid. I also was able to get the mag well to sit a fraction deeper against frame to allow easier seating of all mag extensions. There is also no seam or gap. I think this is the proper and reliable way to install. Couldn’t be happier with the results now.

    This product does exactly what it's designed to do. My only issue is that they don't work with all base plates.

    First off I had questions about this product and the magazine extensions for the shield. Samson quickly emailed me back to help me out. This magwell is a must. I love my shield but it has a design flaw. When at the range firing I’d always notice myself having to take my bottom fingers off the grip in order to drop the magazine because of how the magazines are designed for the shield with that slip on piece of polymer. This magwell fixes that flaw. I installed it easily just by following the instructions that came with the magwell and then went out back and shot three magazines just to see how well the extensions work as well as the magwell. I didn’t have to change my grip when dropping a magazine which saved me time as well as kept me on target. In a pinch I don’t wanna have to take my point of aim off target just to reload, with this said this magwell may be that split second which could save your life. Also yes it is pleasing to the eyes. The Finnish is really nice and how it flares out provides a spot for your fingers to rest. The magwell also helps guide the magazine into the shield. For the price you really can’t beat it for all that it provides to a shooter.

    This is a well thought out product. I rarely carried the gun except with the 8 round magazine anyway. It makes it really easy to shoot now and reloads like a full size gun. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is I had to do a lot of fitting to make it work with my Shield 2.0 but thats probably more an issue with S&W than this product. Even if you have to do a lot of fitting its well worth it.

    My only real gripe with the Shield is how my pinky finger barely hangs on the grip (even with my small hands) and without a mag it has absolutely nowhere to go. This is somewhat distracting with dry fire practice. Its a sub compact pistol so I can't really fault S&W for that. The Samson mag well puts an end to this and the gun now settles perfectly in the hand. I use it with the 8 round mag in the stock configuration (with one in the pipe) and my spare mag as the Samson +1 extension. This setup ensures that the gun always has 9 rounds ready to go (instead of 8). The product works as advertised but I have 2 observations: 1) The magazine no longer falls free from the gun. The inside of the mag well makes just enough friction that I have to manually strip the magazine out. I feel that taking a couple thousandths off the ID during production, omitting the nitride finish on the inside, or polishing the inside would fix this. 2) The anchoring system works well but I feel it should grab the inside of the grip cavity better.
