Base pads originated to help slam home a magazine with certainty. No matter how you reload - slow or fast on the run, a base pad is very helpful.
I like them as they come from Wilson or McCormick already attached to the magazine. In the old days we bought rubber ones and superglued them on or bought cast pads that screwed on.
Carrying a magazine without a base pad in your holstered pistol might make it slightly more concealable.
