New for 2012: Hi-Cap 9mm Mags for P226 and SP2022

We've been pretty quiet during SHOT, but it's not for lack of news to post. Sig really put a hurtin' on the news blogs with all of the new models they've shown off this year. We'll be compiling some picture-and-details post as soon as we can.

In the meantime: Sig Sauer is reportedly bringing extra-high-capacity magazines to the table this year for two of its most popular 9mm handguns. The P226 compatible 9mm magazine will hold 26 rounds, and the SP2022 version (pictured) will hold 20 rounds. These will be especially handy to anyone looking forward to getting their hands on a Sig ACP.

National Magazine currently makes a 30-round P226 9mm magazine, but it's not very reliable due to its poor quality spring. Hopefully these Sig Sauer-branded mags will be more sturdy, as they will certainly carry a heftier price.

MSRP and availability have not yet been announced.

Hopefully these won't be like trying to find a spare barrel for the SP2022. They're almost non-existent.

Hi and thanks for sharing the news / linking to our site. I would appreciate it if you left our watermark intact though (feel free to add your watermark to it with ours). I'm a SigTalk member so its cool. I'm not trying to stir up anything. I just go crazy when I see a photo of mine all over the internet without credit - someone else will rip it off this site and won't give us credit.

As a rule of thumb I don't use images with watermarks, but I always link sources.
However, I can be overruled by the boss - PM gunner to discuss.

Did you take the photo yourself?

Thanks for Posting txshurricane.... I'll take one of each please........ When someone sees that there available, shoot a link.

I understand that but that photo was watermarked and is copyrighted. I shot the photo myself here at SHOT and posted it on my site, sigsauerguns.com. If you had asked I would have sent you a copy without the watermark. It is just a matter of principle I suppose.

osagecountyguns · 01-20-2012, 09:41 AM

Ps. It is a crappy photo - I didn't bring my big dslr's to SHOT.

Using the image without the watermark is not a violation of copyright law, but I understand where you're coming from. Rest assured I don't want to create any ill will here. For the moment I'll let you get in touch with gunner before I make any changes to the header because my loyalty is first with SigTalk and making sure that my news posts are as clean as possible. Let's face it: watermarks look tacky and really serve no purpose except to generate interest in the original source. Which I always link back to.

For the meantime, I'm making the source link clearer and adding a line crediting the image to SigSauerGuns.com. In the future, I'll ask directly for any images I'd like to use watermark-free.

Shame on you!

Who cares about the 20rd mags? How about Sig start making any kind of magazines for the sp2022? None of my LGS have any magazines for it...

sigp229r · 01-20-2012, 09:09 PM

I'm from California, so I guess I won't be able to get one...
