I’m still a bit disappointed in not being able to use the Flex Connector add-on to my QVO Tactical More Discreet AIWB holster. The add-on protrudes outwardly too much when mounted.
The main reason I was experimenting with a sidecar setup was so that I could carry an extra mag.
While complaining about how the Flex Connector compromises concealability, someone commented that I could try out the NeoMag magazine clip.
I checked out the NeoMag clip and found it to be quite expensive ($50 in the configuration I want), but I ordered it anyways – “buy once, cry once” is a saying I usually don’t believe in, but in this case, all I need is one.
I’ll post a report once I’ve received and used it.
UPDATE: I just noticed that I ordered the wrong size. There’s a lot of info on the product page and it wasn’t clear which size I needed for 2011s. It only mentions STI/Staccato (and there’s a whole 2011 market outside of Staccato), but when I looked at the FAQ, it stated that Staccato mags need the large size clip, and I ordered the medium. Note that I’m going to use this with my Prodigy DS mags, and those are Staccato-patterned mags (the mags can be used with Staccatos). I sent NeoMag a note asking them to adjust my order. I wanted to share this mishap so that others wouldn’t make the same mistake.
UPDATE (6/4/2025): Unfortunately, NeoMag had issues with email until today, which means they didn’t see my note until after the package was sent to me. They noticed my note today and sent a reply stating to try the medium and, if it was too small, to use an included return label to send it back to them so that they could replace it with a large clip. I tested the clip and it was indeed too small, so it’s in the mailbox now and will be on it’s way back to them tomorrow.
UPDATE (6/11/2025): Up until this past Monday, I’d been out of town the 4 days prior to that. Guess what was waiting for me when I returned home? Yeah, the NeoMag. They sent out the replacement (large) mag clip as soon as they received notice that the one that was sent to me was on the way back to them. Customer service was GREAT! The large clip works well with the 2011 mags – it carries a mag very well, too. I almost kept the medium one, in case I wanted to use it for non-2011 mags, but changed my mind, as I can order a medium one whenever I decide to carry a non-1911.
