The Hogue 18040 OverMolded Extension Base Pad transforms the Sig Sauer P365 15-round magazine into a more controllable shooting platform. This cobblestone-textured rubber extension eliminates the gap between magazine and grip frame while providing enhanced purchase during reloads. The OverMolded construction bonds directly to the magazine base for permanent attachment.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic plastic extensions, Hogue's OverMolded design uses thermoplastic rubber permanently bonded to the magazine base. The cobblestone texture provides superior grip in wet conditions compared to smooth alternatives. The extension adds approximately 0.75 inches to overall magazine length while maintaining the factory 15-round capacity.
