Description

The TTI PMAG BP .223 +5 is a solid upgrade if you're running Magpul PMAGs on your AR. This titanium gray base pad simply slides onto your existing magazine with zero tools required, and the patented push-pin system locks it down securely. Once installed, you'll get an extra 5 rounds on a PMAG 30 or 6 rounds on a PMAG 40, which means more ammunition between reloads.

How the TTI Base Pad Installation Works

The installation process is straightforward and takes about a minute. Just pop off the plastic insert at the bottom of the spring, slide the base pad on, and push the pin up to lock it. No special tools, no springs to fiddle with, no small parts to track of. The one-piece design means this is genuinely field-strippable if you ever need to clean your mags between stages or just want to swap back to the factory baseplate.

Why Weight Matters in Magazine Design

One detail that sets this extension apart is the added weight. The aluminum construction adds just enough heft to your magazines so they drop free more reliably when the bolt locks back, which translates to smoother, faster reloads. The minimal length addition also keeps the magazine usable while shooting in the prone position, so you're not adding bulk that limits real-world performance.

Material Quality and Durability

Taran Tactical machines this from billet aluminum and hard-anodizes it to a titanium gray finish. All manufacturing happens in the USA. The hard anodize process isn't just for looks. It's a durable coating that resists wear, corrosion, and handling marks. The set screws come pre-set with Loctite at the factory, so you generally won't need to adjust anything. PMAG Gen 2 compatibility rounds out the feature set, making this a flexible choice for most AR builds.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many extra rounds does the TTI PMAG base pad add?

The TTI PMAG BP +5 adds 5 extra rounds to a PMAG 30 magazine (bringing it to 35+1) or 6 extra rounds to a PMAG 40 magazine (bringing it to 46+1). The extra capacity on the 40-round mag comes from the slightly different geometry of the longer tube.

Do I need any tools to install the TTI base pad?

No special tools required. You just need to remove the plastic insert at the bottom of the spring, slide the base pad on, and push the push-pin up to lock it in place. Installation takes less than a minute and the design allows for easy removal if needed.

Will the TTI base pad work with all PMAG magazines?

This specific model is designed for .223/5.56 NATO PMAG 30 and PMAG 40 round magazines. It is compatible with both Gen 2 and Gen 3 PMAGs. Taran Tactical makes different base pads for other calibers like .308, so make sure you're ordering the right one for your magazines.

Why does the extra weight in the base pad help with mag drops?

The added weight at the bottom of the magazine helps it separate from the magazine well more reliably when the bolt cycles back and the mag is no longer being pushed up by the follower. This results in cleaner, faster mag drops for quicker reloads, especially during dynamic shooting.
