It has worked flawlessly. No issues with feeding. Just make sure you give that little extra wiggle room with 4 rounds in it. You want to be able to push the cartridges down another 1/4 inch or so with 4 rounds loaded. If the loaded mag doesnt insert and lock in with a positive click, sand the top of the base plate a little at a time until it does.

Thanks for the great instructions with pics. Just made mine in between watching soccer matches and the evening walk. Picked a couple of mags up from GrabAGun for $25 each.
I have modified mine, using a dremmel makes it really easy. 4 rounds in the mag, 1 in the pipe. Or 7+1 if you use the internals for the 5 rounder.
Now i have a Jefferson outdoors BDL magazine. It fits 4, but i just load 3 out of eaze. But its nice to have the alternatives, changing plate is a 30 second affair if i need it. Sometimes it can be nice to have two mags.
Has anyone try this with Dip base plate ? It looks like there isn't eniugh material to grab on once it's cut and may have excessive Play at where it slides onto .
Performed the mod, it works well. I didn't cut the spring, it holds 4 rounds and cycles like the 5 rounder. I used a hacksaw with a fine blade (I tried the dremel, but I couldn't go slow and control it.) and a utility knife for finishing cuts. Sandpaper stapled to a piece of wood help finish some of the hacksaw cuts. Now that I know what I'm doing, I may perform mod to the inside of a 5 rounder.
