Il CattivoMecGar P220/9mm Magazine? Information And Opinions, Please.
Stumbled across something at a gun show that seemed like an oddball to me today.
In bin at one of the tables was a MecGar marked single-stack magazine that (per my eyeball-o-meter) seemed to be the correct dimensions for a P220 9mm magazine without the back spacer. It wasn't blued, but looked like steel with a light yellowish finish that seemed a little rough to the touch. It came with a flat base and four cuts to accommodate a magazine catch.
It was marked "Sig Sauer", "9mm", "7 rounds" and "European". The seller may have simply counted the witness holes in the side in deciding it was a seven-rounder.
Has anyone seen something like that before?

Il CattivoIt had the cuts in the body for a push-button mag release, but that might be it. If I go back to that show I'll have to take a 220/9mm mag with me just to see if its shorter.
FWIW, the only engraving or other permanent mark on the mag was the MagTec/"mountain" logo across the bottom of one side.

Black92LXI never understood by many mags have no indication as to what sort of mag they are on them.
Were the witness holes in a straight line or zig zag?
