Frequently Asked Questions
Will this magazine work in my SIG Sauer P229 as well as the P228?
Yes. The Mec-Gar SIG P228 magazine is fully compatible with both the SIG Sauer P228 and P229 chambered in 9mm. These two pistols share the same magazine well dimensions, making this a true drop-in fit for either model with no modifications required.
Why does this magazine have a 15-round body but only hold 10 rounds?
California law restricts detachable pistol magazines to a maximum of 10 rounds. This magazine uses the standard full-size 15-round steel body but is blocked at the factory to accept only 10 rounds, keeping it fully compliant for purchase and possession in California while maintaining the original ergonomics and profile of the magazine.
How does Mec-Gar compare to OEM SIG Sauer magazines?
Mec-Gar is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for many of SIG Sauer's factory magazines, meaning the quality, tolerances, and materials are virtually identical to what ships with new SIG pistols. In many cases, Mec-Gar aftermarket magazines are the same product with different branding, making them an excellent and often more affordable alternative to magazines sold under the SIG Sauer name.
