Only for P229-E1
Good mags. These are not for the original P229's. These mags only fit the updated P229-E1.

Great Deal
Better I think than OEM. The two extra rounds help to balance the front heavy Sig P229. Perfect tight fit.

Nice Magazine, Does not fit my Sig P229 Legion.
These magazines are very well made and I really wish they fit my pistol (Sig P229 Legion). Possibly not an updated P229? My pistol mags (Came with gun) are .810" wide. These magazine are bumped out about one inch down from feed lips from .810" to .860" and thus, stop the magazine from being inserted. Too bad, have to return them.

Mec-Gar Magazines are awesome
Mec-Gar magazines are excellent in quality they are made in Italy, This 17 + 1 in chamber round mag fits my P229 Legion perfectly no jams or loose parts. I'll definitely buy more for my M11-A1, it also uses E2 mags.

Great Magazines!
I purchased two for my M11-A1 they work perfectly. The price is right, two extra rounds and the extended plate gives me an even better grip. The person who gave these magazines 1STAR should delete his review. It's not Mec-Gars fault you ordered the wrong mags for your pistol. If you had read the description it explains which mags for which P229 you need.

Great mags. I Bought 2 a
Great mags. I Bought 2 a year ago for evaluation. Haven't had a single feeding issue. The finish is still intact. Highly recommended.

Great mag, looks just lik
Great mag, looks just like the SIG branded 229 mags I have, plus this one has the extra two rounds. It's a P229-1 mag. If you have a P228 this will not fit. It needs the larger mag well of the current production 229.

Excellent quality, same m
Excellent quality, same manufacturer as OEM. +2 baseplate is durable and adds gripping surface for magazine changes.

Hey, it's Mec-Gar, 'nuff
Hey, it's Mec-Gar, 'nuff said. The point I wanted to add is that for those looking, these also fit the SIG SAUER M11-A1, and fit mine perfectly and had zero issues with them at the range.

does this fit sig 229 legion
Answer:
Yes sir. The Legion accepts all P229 magazines.
Will these magazines fit the Tisas PX9 G3 Special Edition Night Stalker 9 mm handgun?
Answer:
No these will be too short. You need Sig 226 magazines. Try item # MAG-490.
