FWIW: I've been using .40 S&W and .357 Sig magazines with my 9mm barrel and recoil spring without any issues in terms of reliability. Oddly enough, even though my P239 was originally built as a .357 Sig version, my 9mm conversion is the most accurate of the three calibers.

My mags came in today so I am a happy camper. I'm going to call Sig tomorrow for something else so I will check and see if they will still back order them.

I heard there are a few agency's still issuing 239 to agents with small hands, so there can be occasional runs of guns, magazines , etc.

CSB time. I stumbled upon all these trade-in P239 9mm magazines for $14.99 at my lgs. They were the old blued style - had a manufacture date of '97 on the baseplate.
I snatched up the best six they had, took them home and gave them a good cleaning inside and out, and they look great almost as if they'd seen little use and sat in a bin for the last 20 years. They'll make good range mags.
Now, I just need to buy a P239.
