Magazine confusion

[kabong57]

Sorry, I'm from Illinois.  Looking at magazines and trying to understand the difference between 11102 and 11132 10 round ones. Depending on which picture is posted, looks like the 11102 is a short metal body with an extended poly base to make it fit Full Size 75's. The 11132 appears to be a full length metal body as is. Is this correct?   If so, could the extended base on the 11102 be replaced with a "standard" base and result in a flush magazine for the compacts ?

I’m not totally sure, but it has been my experience that the flange design on the half polymer magazines are different than those found on the base of a standard full metal body magazine with standard baseplate. The flanges on the half polymer bodies turn inward to interface with the plastic body and base, and the flanges on the full length mags turn outward to catch the baseplate. I doubt there’s an adapter to convert them to flush for compact magazines, but you never know what’s out there.

You have given a good idea though: I have standard steel base plates and the 11132 magazines with my new 75B, so I’m going to swap those on in place of the plastic baseplates.
