Good morning everyone. I just purchased a German Sig P226 in 9mm. And could my fellow members please recommend which additional mags I should buy? It’s my first 226 in years. And I need way more than the 2 it came with. So. What does the forum like for high capacity mags. Thank you.

Mec-Gar and call it a day.

Agreed. Mec-Gar make great mags for all the Euro brands and are as good as anything on the market.

This is my preferred mag, flush fit 18 RNDS.

Mec-Gar 18 round flush fit are my preferred mag for the 226.

Mecgar 100% reliable and not overpriced. PS they are were or still are also am OEM sor sig so quality is great.

DOGPILE!!!!

Yes, anything that has mec-gar stamped on it.
I would venture to say that goes for nearly any semi auto pistol out there.

Yes, Mec-Gar gets it right the overwhelming majority of the time (though many P227 owners with their problematic extended 14rd mags might choose to disagree).

The 18rd mags have been G-T-G for me.

And check GunMagWarehouse for used magazines. Not long ago they had used 226 mags for $18. The ones I bought all work great.

Add me to the dogpile. I have a dozen of the Mec-Gar 18 and 20 rounders, all purchased from Greg Cote. Never a problem with any of them, even after long days of dropping them in the dirt in training classes.

Mec-Gar 18 rounders is all I use in my Sig and Berettas.

To follow the crowd MecGar, what many don't realize is that when they buy the overpriced factory mags, Mecgar is the OEM. Convinced a friend that when he was buying expensive mags for his Witness .45, told him Mec makes them, the only difference is the factory mags have the company's stamp.

Personal preference but I’d avoid USA branded mags. The Mec-Gar is rock solid as a brand.

Don't even complicate it by worrying what not to buy. Just get MecGar unless you happen to find a screaming deal on factory mags - as in, a better deal than the MecGars.

Mec-Gar all the way! Has anyone tried the plus 1 adapter for the 18 round mags yet?

Mec Gar.

Thank you everyone for the replies. Mec-Gar it is.
