I USE MEC-GAR MAGS IN ALL MY SIGS (226,8,9) THEY ARE EXCELLENT QUALITY AND HAVE NEVER LET ME DOWN. I DRIVE AND GUARD ARMORED SEMI WHEN WORKING ON GOVERMENT CONTRACTS. I REALLY LIKE THE 18 ROUND CAPACITY FOR MY 226 AND 15 FOR MY 228, 229. I PRACTICE A LOT AND THESE MAGS HAVE NEVER FAILED ME DESPITE HARD AND FREQUENT USE. YOU CAN BET YOUR LIFE ON THESE MAGS.

Better than the 13rd SIG mag that came with it.
I love the product. It fits great, and swapping mags with these is a bit smoother. Due to the lighter weight, this product ejects faster. Pros: Built to Last

So far - so good!
From what I can tell from comparing this to the 13 rd factory magazines, it is identical. I don't fully understand how it fits an extra 2 rounds. Functions very well in both shooting and reloading. Pros: Extended Capacity

don't wait for the price to go up!
these 15 rnd mags are the perfect size for both aesthetic and ergonomics for my newly acquired p228. I'm so happy I found these from you guys at a more affordable price as well. I bought 3 mags just tested them out 2 weekends in a row and after use found that they function flawlessly with my pistol, you really can't go wrong with mec-gar mags some would say they even have better springs than the oem mags from sig. but that's funny cause I think mec-gar are the ones that actually make the mags for them and other manufacturer but the company probably just stamp there names on some just to mark up the price people save your money go with mec-gar you won't be disappointed.

A good magazine
This magazine is reliable and functions well. I have never had any issues using this magazine. Holds 15 rounds, where as the factory P228 mag holds 13. You wont be disappointed. Pros: Very Reliable and functions good Cons: no issues

Excellent magazine
I was very pleased with this magazine and quickly ordered two more. It works just as well as Sig's stock magazines but slips in and out of the magazine well and my magazine holster much more easily. No problems loading or feeding ammo. These are now my regular magazines and the stock Sig magazines are back ups for the range.

I am running with 10 of these! 0 malfunctions!
Work great! Easy loading, rarely if ever any malfunctions. Never a double feed! Rarely a stovepipe, and only when the gun is really dirty. Hey, it's a German made Sig, built to pre-production US Navy standards for evaluation. The magazines fit in, fall out freely, lock in place securely, feed reliably, are easy to load, and almost never cause any issues. Seldom, the release button gets bumped and I may have to smack one home again. After that, it's game on, until I run dry, then slam in another MecGar. MecGar made the factory magazines for the P228/P229, in a 13 round version. These are 15 rounds. I notice the 13 round magazines also rattle a little, but is that a "thing"?? Some cops complained, but they had cuffs, keys, flashlights, Tasers, batons, and other junk jingle jangle rattling, and after 90 seconds one was wheezing to much to hear the rattling . These work great! Nuff said! Buy'em! Buy lots of them. 10 or 20 or a hundred. Pros: 15 rounds vs 13 for a MecGar made factory mag. Cons: May have a tendency to rattle, if it's an issue.
