3D-Printed 380 Mag Grip Extension (Pics)

Dang, I'm still looking for the TV remote so I can watch the 11:00 news to see how many people got shot today.....I think technology has left the building for this old man.....Nice looking grip extension MahrLalk, no idea how you made it but I'm impressed, don't worry about me uploading it, I'm still trying to download lunch......Oh one last thing, I think you seem to be the right guy with the skills to fabricate a product that will sell and make money for you, tool up a "butt plug" (not a bad word) to fill in the rear of the gap in a Kahr grip so it doesn't look like something is missing and you will sell a bunch of um.....There are several company's selling Glock plugs to fill in the void in the grip but nobody has done it for Kahrs so you may have found a new market for your 3D printer skills and abilities and I'd be a customer.....

Thank you, getsome. I used to run a small 3D design/printing shop on 3DHubs.com before they changed their business model. Nowadays I'm just too busy with work and occasionally I design things for fun. Since you are interested in the models, I will upload them and put a link in the main post when I get back to my computer later today.

I just added a download link in the main post. You can visit craftcloud3d.com to have the parts quoted, printed, and shipped to you for a low cost. Material-wise, PLA works but PETG, ABS and Polycarbonate are preferred.

Thanks, MahrLalk.
I downloaded the files, and have had fun taking a closer look at your work. Impressive!

I learned a lot at this forum before purchasing my first Kahr. Thank you all!

Thanks for making the .STL available for these. I don't know if they'll work for my 9mm, but I suspect with a bit of tweaking, they would.

I appreciate your sharing them.

You are welcome. They probably just need some careful scaling.

I have added a short version which only covers half of the magazine floor plate. The new design expedites the 3D printing process and lowers the material cost.
