Try calling the performance center directly, every now and then there's a story on the board about the service they got and who they talked to. Even rarer they'll post the number here.

I think this might be what you're looking for, I don't know if they have it in stock, this posting is old, that is to say the gun is gone but it came from the performance center, I don't know if they have the part in stock

The magwell chutes for PC guns will not fit regular 3rd gen frames without gunsmith modifications.

The rear of the grip frame is machined for a pair of "legs" on the chute to fit between the frame and grip. The "legs" are then drilled so the grip pin goes thru them to affix it to the gun.

These pics are my PC 4006 IDPA model showing what the bottom of the grip frame looks like, with the spaces on either side of the grip where the magwell "legs" fit.

I bought my magwell chute here

The PC used at least two different magwells, one shorter than the other. They do go on just like the other poster said, requiring machining of the frame. The other downside is unless you get the extended mag bases it's harder to seat the stock mag into the gun because it's then recessed. Classic Pistol use to make the extended pads for S&W 5900/4000 mags but I don't know if they still do. Beside the PC you might check with Speed Shooters Specialities for the parts.

handgunner brought up a good point about the mag being recessed with a mag well.Maybe I will just leave it as is. Thanks all.
