Been looking at this gun for a bit.
This gun comes with 14 rd magazines but can use a standard 19 rd XDM magazine. It looks like it does this by using a sleeve over a standard 19 rd magazine. The sleeve version you buy seems to depend on the backstrap you use.
Does anyone own one of these? It seems silly to introduce the Elite series with 20 and 22 rd magazines then make the compact use a 19 rd magazine. The 20 rd mag looks to be the same as the 19 with a different baseplate. Why would they list on the SA website that you can expand to 19+1 instead of 20+1? It must be that the sleeve and the baseplate don't marry well together or something, but I figured someone here may have tried this and can shed some light on it for me.
It is forcing me to consider what size backstrap to use but that is another thread
