Thinking of getting a compact Dagger. If I add a magwell 3D printed from Ebay, will I need different magazine baseplates?
Have not found a direct answer with a search
Thanks

It depends on the magwell and the baseplate.  I don't know if any that are automatically not compatible however. Standard OEM Glock or Magpul magazines should work with all of them.  Extensions are another issue.

If you don't mind spending a few bucks more, look at this.

Grit Grips makes a great magwell, and the owner designed the frame for PSA, so he has a good idea how a magwell should fit LOL

I have the grit grips magwell, and it works fine with Glock and Magpul magazines.

I see they have the magwell now for the Micro.  I might need that too.

And their own frame, finally

I believe I read that the G43X/G48 is the next magwell design.

Thank you! Now to decide whether to go with the Dagger gen 3 frame or the Nomad Gen 5. Slide is a Gen 3. About to try. I have both Gen's

Tried the Gen 3 slide on a 19X. Worked fine with the safety and striker release with the Gen 5 backplate. Decided to go with the PSA Dagger Compact. They had the sniper green on sale with the case for $70.00. Ordered 2 different carbon type type magwells off Ebay for about $20, to see which fits my med. sized hands better. Nomad Gen 5 frame is $250 with a magwell and would still have to order a couple of parts. Timney trigger is on the way too.
Thank you for your help
