Walther PPQ mag / sleeve question

[deemus]

I recently bought another mag for my PPQ. It came with a sleeve that slides over the mag. It appears to be an extension.

When I leave the sleeve on it, it won’t insert all the way. And the bottom of the extension looks similar to the bottom of the pistol.

My question is, what is the sleeve for? You can’t insert the mag with it on the mag.

Maybe it's for a compact version?
In that case, it would be an extended mag.

possibly. It fits my PPQ perfectly without the sleeve.

edit - just searched PPQ compact, and thats a thing. Did not know that. OK, question answered.

Thanks.

Bring your unneeded PPQ sleeve to the reunion & if it'll fit my full-sized XD mag in my XD compact pistol, maybe we can do a deal
