Now that I'm waiting on my gun I'm looking to source some magazines.
The guys here in Australia want $95 per magazine. Looking at Brownells I can get genuine Sig magazines for almost half that (plus freight and insurance) I can still get about 7 magazines for the cost of 4 local ones.
Should I buy Sig or another reputable manufacturer that makes OEM mags?
Bearing in mind I'll be shooting competitions so they'll get a fair amount of use!
Thanks for the quick response. I'm in Australia so we are limited to 10 round magazines. Most of the Mec-Gear stuff exceeds this unless Brownells only stock higher capacity magazines.
You're a gentleman and a scholar. I have sent them an email and waiting to see if they will export to Australia. Given they are $19.95 each I should avoid the $100 expensive export license thingo.
Hopefully they do, otherwise I'll buy the Sig ones from Brownells.
Hi, everyone I have sig p226 x5 competition 40 cal and I looking for Mec-Gar magazine that will fit to my Sig, I called several store and they said that the Mec gar 15 and 13 rounds magazines will not fit to X5 coz the base pad are to wide for the magwell. Is there any Mec-gar magazine that will fit and do you think that the 10 round will work on my X5 thanks
Any P226 mag in .40S&W will fit your X5 perfectly fine. I have used Sig 10-rounders, Sig 12-rounders, Sig X5 14-rounders, and MecGar 15-rounders...all without any problems.
check aimsurplus. i scored a great deal on 225 mags I seem to recall they had 226 mags as well but they didn't catch my eye since i don't own one (yet)
