Mags being too long?
I bought a brand new, and I mean it appears to have never had a slide ever put on it, take off P226 DAK .40 frame a few days ago, to make my recently bought police trade in P226 DAO gun into the DAK, which I really like. My slide went right on the new E2 frame, and the mags lock in, but all three of the 9mm mags I have stick out of the grip, the 15 round one is about a 1/4" too long, the 18 round one is about a half inch and the 20 round one is a little bit longer than that. Is there any difference between a .40 frame and a 9MM? What mag do I need to get one that fits flush?

The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC

It sounds like you bought a 229 DAK frame, not a 226 DAK frame

You are correct sir! I checked it when I got home and that's what it is. I'm going to have a talk with the seller, I guess. Will this function or is it a bad idea to even try it?

Magazine yes. Slide no.

That's what I thought. Now I need to find a 9mm slide or trade it for a 226 frame. Sigh...

Thanks.
