Product Description
What's a "Special Mount?"
You only need a "Special Mount" if your PPQ has a steel frame and our standard magwell doesn't fit well. The steel frame guns have some variability in the front-to-back length of the grip -- which affects the fit. In many cases, our magwell that fits the polymer gun snugly will fit loosely enough to "wobble" on a steel frame.
First, watch our basic PPQ Overdrive installation video. Now that you understand how the magwell works, we can explain how to fit one to your pistol. We have intentionally left the "hook" that engages the roll pin unfinished. You will need to remove some material from this hook -- only enough to let the roll pin through.
There are a couple of ways to do this, but the most common looks like this:
1. Mount the magwell on the gun, but don't push the roll pin through.
2. While holding the magwell in place, use the steel frame as a drill guide to remove most of the extra material that is blocking the roll pin hole.
3. Pull the magwell back off, clean away the shavings and clean up the edges of the hook -- then try to push the roll pin through
4. If it won't go, look through the hole to see if you can see any obvious bits of material that weren't removed by the drill.
5. Using a small round file (or similar) gradually remove material, attempting to mount the magwell and roll pin at regular intervals.
Do this in small increments, as we can't put material back on! Eventually the roll pin will slide into place, giving you a solid fit. Typically, this process takes about 30 minutes.
Due to state department restrictions, this part cannot be shipped internationally.

Use
Quality is perfect, fit is perfect, look and feel it perfect. This doesnt go in all the way to the magwell on the frame of the polymer ppq. Mag lips still catch when inserting. A little dremel trimming to the plastic of the frame, and no more issues. Worth it for speedy reloading, will recommend.

Just what I needed.
I purchased a TF mag well from Walther. It was loose and rattled a lot. This one was easy to install and fit.

Great fit after I filed down the mag well where the pin enters.
Great fit. No wobble

After about two minutes with a small round file magwell was installed. Fits very snug, no wobble . Nice product. Looks good too.

Magwell
I received the magwell super fast. It looks awsome. Had to grind the hinge a little bit to make it work but its hard to complain with the results.

PPQ Overdrive magwell and +6 & +12 basepads
Extremely pleased with the magwell's quality and the ease and speed improvement of the reload. Extra capacity achieved with the +6 and +12 pads was the big plus, but the mags functioned flawlessly. Excellent turn around from order to delivery.

Bought this for q5 steel frame. Followed instructions provided. Magwell fit perfectly, and solid. No wiggle or looseness at all. Fit the idpa box and still made weight for carry optic division.
