So I thought I would see about adding a couple more available rounds by trying a longer 7 round mag to my PM40. I thought it may offer a little more grip to steady out the shots too. The mag extends down below the grip a bit, just exposed metal for your hand to contact. Are there any covers or grips that can be added to help the feel of this longer mag? I can post pics, but figure it is easy to picture what I am talking about. Thanks!

This will work on 9mm and .40 Kahr magazines: https://shopkahrfirearmsgroup.com/pistol-parts/kahr-042m4e-magazine-base-7-round-mag-base-extended.asp

I imagine this will work as well, but you might want to give Alfonse a shout to verify: https://lakelinellc.com/shop/kahr-9mm-base-plate-extension-for-additional-round/

You're welcome.
The Pearce product in that auction look to be extensions that increase the grip length a bit. lot of folks like them for this. Here's a review some gent did on them:

So I took some "atomic tape" that is flexible and carefully built up the gap showing on the 7 round mag. I made a slight ridge where my pinky would seat better on the tape. I am not normally a duct tape and bailing wire type guy, but I thought I would try this before fabricating a more professional type grip for this. What do you think?
