Most Helpful Positive Review YVE Technologies Magazine Extension Base Pad

I have been using the Magazine Extension Base Pad for a few months now and have to say that they are a great upgrade to my magazines. They did what they advertised, the only complaint that I have it that the magazine does not feed into the magazine well as smooth as I would want it and it sometimes ...

Most Helpful Negative Review Just OK....

Just got two mag extension pads (Tan) for my M&P Shield 9mm. These feel good and are pretty easy to install however, the coating is pretty bad. Although getting two extra rounds is probably whats most important to people buying these, the other reason people want these is for a certain customized lo...

+2 9mm rounds for your S&W Shield

by trant, Verified Owner from CA, United States Written on July 2, 2024

Easy to install! (8 rounds in the original mag + 2 rounds with this extension still equals the CA-legal 10 rounds.) Looks a bit crooked when the mag is alone, but everything still fits perfectly when the mag is inside the pistol.

Pros:

Looks good
Gives a full grip

Cons:

None

Best Used for:

range toy

Nice two round extension

by Richard Engelhart, Verified Owner from GA, United States Written on March 27, 2024

After installing it, it doesn't fit flush up to the factory mag there is a small gap there, that wasn't very appealing to me.

Reliable. Comfortable. Useful

by Max, from MI, United States Written on February 27, 2024

This is my 3rd baseplate from Hyve and all have functioned flawlessly. If you’re tossing up we’re or not these are going to be reliable…they are. When I run them side by side with factory mag plates they perform identically. 10/10

Love the extra capacity!

by scnaegle, Verified Owner from UT, United States Written on January 10, 2024

Easy to install. Well worth the price to get the extra capacity. Only complaint is that there is a slight gap between the back of the extension and the magwell. Would prefer it to be a little tighter. But other than that, it looks amazing and I plan on getting more for my other mags.

Pros:

Easy to install
Love the look

Cons:

There is a slight gap between the extension and the magwell

Adding two more rounds

Cons:

None

Hyve +2 mag extension for M&P Shield 9mm

by Joe B., from CA, United States Written on August 15, 2022

I tried one of these out at a gun range before buying. I like the feel and function. When you load you 8 round mag to 10 with this extension, it’s a little more difficult to seat the mag unless you really slam it home. I Googled this problem and others have reported the same issue. I’ll keep it and maybe carry it backed off one round. I’ll still get the larger grip that comes with the extended mag.

Poor Design/Quality

by Rich M, Verified Owner from PA, United States Written on March 15, 2022

Bought this for my Gen 1 M&P Shield. Does not provide the +2 rounds with one in the chamber. The magazine won’t seat correctly if there’s the extra 2 rounds in the mag and one in the chamber. If you were using the 8 round mag with +1 you’d essentially only gain 1 more round instead of 2. Also the coating scratches easily. Go with the tyrant +2 mag extension. It gives you the +2 with 1 in the chamber and is a solid build with a cheaper price tag.

California Compliant

by The2AinCA, Verified Owner from CA, United States Written on September 25, 2021

Installation was easy, it was just a matter of swapping the base plate and slightly stretching the factory spring. I dry-fired a full clip with snap caps without any issues and it worked flawlessly at the range. Also, the additional length of the magazine allowed a full grip which improved my accuracy.

Pros:

Extra rounds and better grip

Cons:

None

Scratches easily

by BD, from HI, United States Written on May 1, 2021

A little hard to install. Must be installed correctly otherwise the rounds will jam. Finish scratched while putting extender onto the magazine. Prevents conceability since makes grip stick out. Not sure on feed reliability. I’m using it for qualifications and backup magazine.

Pros:

Extends magazine

Cons:

scratches easily
scratches easy

Best Used for:

Range

M&P shield 9mm mag extension.

by suits, Verified Owner from CA, United States Written on April 11, 2021

I really like these, added em to my 8round S&W clips in 2-3 minutes! The paint job leaves a lot to be desired. They look great, till you touch it to anything and it scratches on the first bump... No worries for me though, I know a powder coater and will be having these custom powder coated with a nice fine texture added. (which HYVE should seriously consider doing in the future) one day at the range with these and they are both scratched all over. other than that, they are great and very useful.

Pros:

2 extra rounds!

Cons:

paint is easily scratched

Best Used for:

adding 2 more rounds to an absurdly small clip number
