Beretta/MDS 15-round mags Login/Join

posted April 18, 2020 07:13 PM
Found (or rather "rediscovered") these in the bottom of a duffel bag where I tossed them several years ago, just before a move. The brand is "Meccannica del Sarca" which is, or was, owned by Beretta. Bought these somewhere between 10 and 15 years ago and never used them. Think I paid $15 each.

Shouldn't need any more 15 rounders for a while anyway. Is this brand still marketed by Beretta?

I don’t think so. They are great mags though.

An interesting manufacturer. The magazine end of the business sure brings back some memories as I worked in magazine making on a much larger scale. MDS must be supplying Beretta with long gun stocks also. Their stock making mills are quite advanced and to see a probe being run on a gun stock.

I have a couple and they work ok, not great. I think they supplied them to the military and it did not go well. Stick with Beretta and mecgar.

MdS was founded by Beretta. They make magazines and wood stocks for Beretta firearms.
