If you run Wilson Combat ETM magazines on your 1911, this replacement base pad is a smart way to beef up your magazines' durability and handling. The nitride-coated steel construction resists corrosion and stands up to the wear and tear that comes with regular range trips or carry duty. Unlike polymer base pads that can flex or crack under stress, steel gives you a rock-solid platform that won't let you down.
The whole point of a lo-profile base pad is to keep your magazines looking sleek without adding unnecessary bulk. This one does exactly that while delivering a confident grip surface when you need to yank a mag from your pouch fast. Whether you're running a magwell or shooting without one, the slim profile works with how you carry.
Swapping out your base pads couldn't be easier. No tools required. Just pull off the old pad and snap on the new one. It's designed specifically for Wilson Combat's #500, #500B, #500C, and #500BC ETM magazine models, so you know it'll fit right the first time. The reinforced construction means it'll handle everything from range sessions to competitive use without issues.
Wilson Combat's reputation for quality runs deep on base pads too. The nitride coating protects against rust and corrosion, and the steel simply won't flex like polymer will. Whether you're dealing with wet weather, sandy conditions, or just constant magazine insertion and removal, this pad is engineered to keep performing. It's the kind of small upgrade that pays off over the life of your mags.
Yes, this base pad is specifically designed for Wilson Combat ETM magazine models #500, #500B, #500C, and #500BC. No tools are required for installation. While older generation ETM magazines may require minimal fitting, current production magazines will fit without issues.
Steel base pads are significantly more durable and resist flexing under stress, which is critical during fast tactical reloads or when slamming magazines into the gun without a magwell. The nitride coating also protects against corrosion better than polymer, making steel the choice for serious shooters and frequent range users.
Yes. The low-profile design keeps your magazines from sticking out excessively from the frame, which makes a noticeable difference if you carry without a magwell or prefer a cleaner look. It's thin enough that it won't interfere with most holsters or carry setups.
Absolutely. Installation is tool-free and straightforward. You simply remove the old base pad and attach the new one. No special knowledge required, and it takes about a minute per magazine.
