WTK: P210 Magazine?

[sillymike]

Hey folk,

Anybody got "actual" experience with the metalform magazines for the SIG P210? (Or know of a source for reasonably priced factory mags )

Thanks,
Mike.

Sillymike. Do what other people do . Use p38 mags,install one in your sig andyou will see that you have to take a little off the back the back. They do not stay open on the last round unless you alter the mag follower. Ray.

The one other guy I know who shoots one only uses factory magazines. I was getting a little discouraged by their going price on fleabay...

Left: O.E.M. Sig 210 Mag
Right: P38 Mag.

Note difference in angle of bottom plate to magazine body.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Top: P38
Bottom: Sig 210
Note difference on front of mag follower. You can see why the P38 mag will not hold open.

Dummy rounds do feed from this P38 mag into this 210 pistol, despite the fact that it is not locked in the heel catch.

DIOPTER, A.K.A. "THE OTHER"

BTW: Anyone try Sig 225 mags in a 210?

Sig 225 mag
I'm sure the hold open will not work as is.
