Review: XD-M Magwell Conversion Kits

I have since read that the standard XD-M 19-round 9mm magazine will NOT fit with the magwell. However, the 22-round 9mm magazines will fit the standard XD-M without the magwell installed.

Would like to do this with my Ronin EMP3.
However, I think I would be limited to the 10 round mag that goes with the EMP4, and even then, I’m not sure whether or not there would be some cycling issues with that longer mag in my gun.
Nonetheless, it would still be nice to have more magwell flaring to allow for faster mag changes.

My recent purchase of the XD-M Elite 3.8 10mm Compact was the first with a “flared” mag well installed, it was immediately removed, due to the nature of the shorter grip of the compact gun and my larger then average hands the flared mag well interfered with my grip on the gun as well as since I use the extended mags to ensure a more a positive grip it doesn’t work with the extended mags. Since I constantly train for defensive mag changes my muscle memory also ensures a smooth change without the need for a flared opening.
This post is not intended to discourage the addition of this kit supplied by SA and will say if I had purchased the 4.5inch full sized version of this Elite 10mm which I believe comes with the flared mag I would have kept it on.
