Filing P226 Mags to fit the Norinco NP22 (Help requested)

[fordstick]

Can anyone show me where to file the factory P226 magazine to fit the Norinco NP22?

Thank you!

RESOLVED!! I filed the mag catch hole just a little bit and it locked in to the gun pretty tight. So I knew I was on the right track. Then I filed a wee bit more until it was only a tiny bit tighter than the factory mags (I figure it will wear a little with use so I didn't want it sloppy). Then I used my Outers gun blue kit to hide the file marks. I put in some snap caps and everything cycles like it should and slide lock works too. The only other test is to run some live ammo through it.

Can you post some pictures? I got a second hand np22 that only came with one mag and I have been looking to get some more mags

My file was a bit too big to fit in so I mucked up the mag a bit... still works though.

what I did years a go was fit the gun to the mags, that way you still have sig mags that work.
