More about the EBP

Conventional extended base pads primarily have a square or rectangular shape. Their designs mostly consist of flat or slightly angled surface areas on all sides and a flat section on the bottom. These designs are not ergonomic. They do not provide proper surface contact and feedback to the shooter during the reload sequence.

The advanced ergonomic design of the Grip Force EBP resolves all of these issues of conventional extended base pads.

The Grip Force EBP is the result of ergonomic evolution. When developing the Grip Force EBP, we studied the exact manner in how the human hand operates during a reload sequence. How the hand indexes the base pad and magazine in its pouch. How it wraps around the base pad and magazine body when removing the magazine. How it orients the magazine toward the magazine well, and how the hand functions when inserting, seating, and locking the magazine into the pistol.

The Grip Force EBP is designed to work with the hand naturally. The result is optimized speed and efficiency of the reload sequence. Fit = Function 

Additional Features include:

  • Ambidextrous indented side panels enhance the operation for immediate action drills. 

  • A reinforced 3-pin locking bridge offers additional security against the base pad separating from the magazine body.

  • The ergonomic shape of the EBP aids in concealed carry; the base pad design prints less underneath clothing.

  • The EBP offers an enhanced grip surface for compact (G19-sized) pistols.

  • Made from impact-resistant engineer-grade polymer, the EBP has a non-glare finish, suitable for MIL/LE duty use.

The Grip Force EBP can be used on Standard (G17/G22) or Compact (G19/G23) sized magazines.
