Keeping Mags Secure in IPSC: Anyone Tried Extended Base Pads?

What’s the best way to keep your mags secure during a match? I’ve been eyeing some extended base pads like these and wonder if they’d help. Any thoughts? CZ Shadow 2/SP01 Mec-Gar Magazine Base Pad Extended – Boss Components

Knowledge is contagious

First Reddit post here. I have countless hours of using YouTube/Reddit for learning about my current obsession(firearms). Have learned a lot and wanted to potentially give back. Has anyone had break through moments of clarity and understanding after taking apart a model like a puzzle and assembling it back? Also a greater appreciation for the marvels of engineering we have available for personal defense? Ability to clear malfunctions/diagnose issues/modify/replace parts/properly clean ect. from that mechanical understanding of those firearms? I’d like to thank my fellow men and women for sharing experiences and knowledge.

Guns for a new pistol owner

I’m trying to pick out a pistol for my friend who is new to guns and only wants to spend between $300-$400. Any suggestions? I’ve heard decent things about Tisas. Also looking at ruger, dagger, p365.

Anyone have experience with Primary Arms Gen 2 mini reflex (24mm)

Looking for reviews and if anyone’s had one for a while/shot a lot with it.

Not wanting it for a carry options, mainly to go on tinkering glocks and stuff like that so semi-low expectations

Talk me out of a new Staccato HD.

I have an itch for a new pistol, and I just saw an ad for the new Staccato HD. I like the idea of it taking Glock mags, but do I need a 2.5k ish pistol? I have an X Macro, a few Glocks, M&P 2.0, Walther PDP "F", and a few Caniks. Is there a "just as good" pistol similar to the Staccato that I'm missing? Are they really worth the money? Thanks.

Red dot

Do people actually CC a pistol wit a red dot scope? My eyes are getting old and I wonder if it’d help.

Why does my glock feel fake?

I've carried my Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS since I bought it to years ago and it feels so toyish. What's the going price for a double stack 1911 or a Beretta 92fs?

Trigger not operational

I put together a factory Glock trigger housing, ghost connector, factory trigger bar, and aftermarket shoe. Everything went together fine, verified it was assembled properly. But once installed on my micro dagger the trigger wouldn't function. It pushes the slide back slightly when you engage the trigger. Any ideas?
