For the M&P I have seen both the Taylor and the Arredondo in action. In this instance, the Taylor worked better. YMMV

I use the +10 Taylor Freelance extenders on my M&P Pro 5" 9mm magazines. I use the TF Limited Mag Well. also. (Aluminum version)
Got all of them from 'Speed Shooter Specialties'

The pistol is for Open division 3-Gun.

Speed Shooter Specialtiescarries mag extensions as well as magwells to go with them. The Taylor's seem to work the best.

Get the Taylor ones, the "other Plastic" ones are 100% absolute garbage. I was extremely disappointed with them and will never buy another product made by the company as this was the second product I bought with their name on it that turned out bad.

My kids and I run the Arredondo extensions. They run just fine for us, both with the Arredondo spring and the OEM spring. We get one more round in with the OEM spring.

I never had a problem with the Arredondos but I run the extra power spring. I know some guys that run the factory spring have had issues.

Arrendondo's work well for me. World's difference between them on the M&P mags and the aweful para extentions.
The pain of persevering is temporary-The pain of quitting lasts forever.

Things happen when I make them happen.

I've run Arrendondo for two years without a single issue. I do not use a magwell. If I did I'd probably get the higher capacity of the Freelance Taylors.

+1 for the TF's. Ive been running the 140's pretty hard for a little over a year. They've been nothing but awesome. Have the SSS brass magwell to add a little weight for USPSA (steel model for the occasional IDPA match). Havent looked back.
