Installation Guide
Difficulty: Easy (no gunsmithing required)

Tools Needed: Small Allen key (included), screwdriver
Installation Steps:

- Align magwell with frame mounting points
- Insert screws through magwell into frame
- Tighten evenly to secure fit (do not overtighten)

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this magwell legal for IPSC Production Division?
No. IPSC Production Division allows only a maximum 5mm extension beyond the grip frame. This full brass magwell exceeds that limit. It IS legal for IPSC Standard Division, where full magwells are permitted.
Will this fit my CZ 75 SP-01 or Tactical Sport?
No. This magwell is designed exclusively for CZ Shadow 2. The frame dimensions differ from CZ 75 SP-01 and Tactical Sport models. We have specific magwells for those platforms - please check our CZ collection.
How much weight does this add compared to aluminium?
This brass magwell adds approximately 150 grams, compared to around 40-50 grams for an aluminium magwell. The additional weight is positioned low and forward, providing superior muzzle flip reduction.
Does this work with aftermarket magazine base pads?
This magwell is designed to work perfectly with Boss Components magazine base pads. Fit with other brands may vary - we recommend using Boss base pads for guaranteed compatibility and optimal performance.
Which finish should I choose?
All three finishes (gold plated, chrome plated, matte black) provide the same performance. Choose based on your preference:
- Gold plated - Classic competition look, shows wear over time
- Chrome plated - Bright, durable finish, easy to clean
- Matte black - Tactical look, hides wear, matches most guns
Do I need a gunsmith to install this?
No. Installation is straightforward and takes approximately 10 minutes with basic tools. Full instructions are included. If you can remove your grips, you can install this magwell.
Can I remove it if I decide to sell the gun?
Yes, absolutely. The magwell attaches with screws and is completely reversible. Simply unscrew, remove, and your frame returns to original condition.
How does brass compare to aluminium for competitive shooting?
Brass provides dual benefits - fast reloads AND recoil control. Aluminium is lighter and adds minimal weight (good for speed-focused shooters). Brass is preferred by IPSC Standard and USPSA Limited shooters who want maximum control. Aluminium is preferred by shooters prioritizing agility and speed.
What's the advantage of the aggressive chamfering?
The 60-degree bevelled entry funnel catches magazines from a wider range of angles, making "misses" nearly impossible. This means faster, more confident reloads under stress - especially critical in long, complex stages.
Will this work with extended magazine base pads?
Yes, this magwell is designed to accommodate magazine base pads. We specifically recommend Boss Components base pads which are engineered for perfect fit with our magwells.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship worldwide. Shipping times vary by location. Australian orders typically arrive within 3-5 business days.
