| For what it's worth. I've got one from my thread about the ported P365XL I just got back. Had it cerakote'd while he had it and ordered it for me. Seems just as good as a Sig mag from Sig for what it's worth.

| Best part about them is that they are stainless so they won’t rust like the sig mags. |

| I carry mine all day at work, and after, all 5 sig mags I have rust regularly, I have a couple buddies with 365’s and they have the same issue, always rusts along the base plate. Since I switched the magpul mags it’s not longer an issue. The finish on those mags is cheap. I’ve owned and carried other sig pistols over the years and never had this problem with their mags. To be fair I had the same problem with the shield plus as well. |

Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do.
| Limblessbiff, Where are you located? And what is the exposure of the mags to the environment? Example: Are you an ocean beach cop that exposes you to a lot of salt water spray?
Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking.

| I have quite a few factory P365 mags and I live in a wet, humid area, Florida along the Gulf Coast, and none of my mags have any indication of rust.
Some folks have, as RogueJSK said, something in their sweat or body chemistry that causes some metals to rust yet other folks have the same metals and have no rust.
I recall back in the 70s, the blued backstraps on Smith 10s, 15s and 19s were rust magnets for some officers while others, carrying the same guns, never seemed to rust.
Maybe this is a similar situation.

I work in a factory in Ohio, the mag in the gun doesn’t do it nearly as much but still does a little, back up mag in my pocket does it more and I have it in a kydex pocket mag carrier |

| I've had my 17 rounder mags for months for the P365 AXG Legion and I'm pleased that not only they feed and eject properly, but they're easier than the OEM versions to load. A few weeks ago, I received a couple of the ten rounders that I wanted for my regular P365 (converted to an "X" version with a replacement slide), and now that I've had a chance to try them out, I find them to be just as good as the other versions. I'm very pleased with these and like the idea that they far less prone to rust and pitting, which I found to be the OEM's greatest shortcoming (especially out here in Arizona was sweat IS an issue).
