My M&P came with two "Mag Sleeves" Just slip on spacers so you could use a full size mag in a compact sized frame.

They are simple plastic affairs and I dont envision them staying in place with just friction. Has anyone glued these in place on the larger mag? If so .. what did you use? I was thinking a thin layer of silicon so I could get it off if I wanted but ??
 
The ones I have fit pretty tight, I did not have to glue them. However after pinching my hand multiple times putting that sleeved mag in the compact grip I took them off. My big hand sticking down below the grip frame got pinched to often. Doing a fast mag change you have to make very sure to adjust your grip, so as not to pinch. I just was not skilled enough to remember to do that every time.
 
Used E6000 craft glue on a couple of Sig p320 mags for this. Not sure if it’s the best, or how it will hold up, but it’s what I had.
 
Double-stick tape? Piece cut from an inner tube?

I know -- rubber glue! I know holster makers use that stuff. See if you can find a holster maker. :D

Lol ... I have to check my Rolodex ... Gotta be a leather guy in there somewhere!
 
Black RTV silicone or even liquid tape should work. A little dab should do you but as said watch out for the pinch...
 
You could always put a bevel relife on the extensions edge where you get pinched. Quick pass with a Dremel or a few swipes of a file should suffice.
