Sig P250 is my jam, but what is up with the mags?
I found the P320 fit my hand nicely. I like hammer fired and picked up some P250s over the last few years. Below is a picture of the mags disassembled. The four springs on the right are from some 15rd mags and the springs the left are from various 10rd mags that have come with the guns I've been getting off gunbroker.

Anyone have any idea why such a big difference in spring size for the 10rd mags? I figure generational changes...? A lot of the P250s I picked up (3 so far) came with 10 rounders.

Thoughts?

Hmm ….
According to an Internet search the P250 was officially “launched” in 2007, although a prototype was revealed sometime in 2004. The Clinton AWB expired in 2004, so were P250s made before then? SIG has long made 10-round magazines of various types to be available for sale in states with their own limits.

No idea about the springs, though.

Come to think of it a couple were from mag restriction states. That better explains the ten rounders...

Updated the post. thx.
