Sig P229c 9mm question
Friend has one of the discontinued P229c 9mm pistols. Like a 224 upper on a 229 frame. Uses the 229-1 magazine. He wants to know if he buys a P224 complete slide in 40 will it work on the frame.

I have no idea but told him I would ask the best folks I know for an answer.

Thanks in advance

OP, good job, I knew Willard would know. Seems He knows everything. I thought it would fit and work other than locking block and of course mags. Now we know.

P229 357/40 & 9x19-1 E2 magazines are wider bodied & have a double taper from the latch slot to the feed lips.
P228 & 226 mags will fit & function in above frame.

A P229 Carry uses a P228 9x19 Barrel & Locking Insert.
P228 & P226 magazine bodies are narrower 7 have a single taper from the latch slot to the feed lips.
P228 & 226 magazines will fit & function in a P229 Carry.

No comment on P224 Bbl/Slide fitting/functioning since I've never owned one.


The 229C has a 3.5" bbl
