I received a Xmas pressie today of a new magazine for my P365, the Mrs asked me where to get it from so I did a little search, found the cheapest and just sent her a link, she ordered it, it arrived, she wrapped it and I finally got around to opening it today ! Turns out it's an extended 20 shot magazine rather than the standard 12 shot one that comes with the gun, I didn't know that they even existed let alone could actually buy one....
Here's a picture of the original and the extended together.
SIG P365 with the standard 12 round mag.
SIG P365 with the extended mag.
The extra mag length definitely gives you more 'pinky' purchase on the gun, there's quite a few differences between the magazines (the BB follower, the mag spring, the mag spring cover plate, the actual design is slightly different but it even has .177 stamped on it whereas the original doesn't). I'll only be filling the extended to 12 (like the RS extended mags) whereas I only put 10 in the standard mag.
This was a new one to me, just thought that I'd mention it to the rest of you guys, especially if you're just after a replacement 12 round mag rather than the extended version as it's obviously larger. Maybe I'm late to the party (I should really get out from under this rock where I spend most of my time, lol) and everyone else is aware of this....
