Great. I hope they serve you well MRC. Let me know how they tend to pocket carry for you if you use one while pocket carrying. I shoot it better with it on for sure. Take care.

I have not carried  it yet but I will today.  I do not see a problem.  When I pull the pistol from my pocket the entire grip and extension is covered by my hand.  The only difference is my little finger is on the grip.

They do feel good and fit very nice.  The Solo magazines are the only mags I have ever seen with a floor plate fitting like that.

Great MRC. Glad you are satisfied.

I wish the sides went straight back rather than the "body line" but I am strictly speaking from an aesthetic sense from my point of view. Not a big deal. I prefer the looks of the ones I've bought for the Rohrbaugh and Seecamp personally.

What are your thoughts on the look?

They are cut back because of the way they dovetail into the magazine.  I alluded to that in my post.

I agree about the looks, but it is just to facilitate the machining process.
