That is a great question, Chinook, as it makes no sense to me, either.

I just like the looks of the straight extension.  The normal grip is just fine for my small hands and I don't need any additional gripping surface.

It's not a matter of grip; it's a matter of leverage.  A hook allows you to maintain the grip with downward leverage to offset the gun's need to rise on recoil.  I can shoot my pup with some accuracy but speed (between shots) is not there and if speed is there then accuracy is not.  I'm really hopeful that a hooked mag extension will greatly increase my effectiveness with the pup.

I'm with you there, Chinook, but it's really to each his own.

Gene, will do.

Here are the shop drawings of the extension, I'm going to call tomorrow and see if they can give me an idea of when they will start on the first pc.

I wish it were the first production peice and not a drawing, I called this afternoon to talk with the boss man at the shop and was told he went home after lunch because he is on anti biotics for Pneumonia, and the doctor told him to take it easy
for a few days. They thought he would probably be in Fri. but were not sure. I'll give a call tomorrow and see if he's in, other wise I will try on Monday. Will give an update as soon as I talk to him.

CarolineDuke, welcome to the group. I am about an hour to an hour and a half from Charlotte. I live between Asheboro and Denton.
 And congrats on the purchase of that fine pup. I have the sight dots on my pup also and a full Robar finish.
  I will put you down for two of the hooked extensions.

If my fingers were any more crossed, my blood circulation would be in jeopardy!

Thanks for the updates.  Still interested in at least one of each to see which I prefer, then probably another of the preferred flavor.
