CZ and Beretta 92 mag tubes have roughly the same outer dimensions at the bottom, and you can often swap basepads/baseplates. I found that the baseplate from one of my USGI M9 mags matched the front contour of my 75 Compact absolutely perfectly when installed on a factory 14-rounder. Completely flush, like it was made for it.

I like those baseplates because when I do tactical reloads, I can use the meat of my pinky to push on that baseplate and push it out of the mag well and onto the ground for a speedy reload.

If it has any rounds left in it it will but an empty mag just wont drop free. Even with oiling it doesnt help.
