My guess. That way they got your email address and can bombard you with accessory deals every couple of days.
Anyone know, did they stop the monthly gun give away?

I live 15 minutes from the Sig Pro Shop. I only own two Sig pistols, a P210 Standard and a P238. I buy my 238 mags from Metalform and they are about $17. They appear to be the exact mag, minus markings, that Sig sells for $37. They can keep them.
The P210 is a different bird, since nobody seems to make a good aftermarket mag, Sig is the only place to go. They sell factory 8-round P210 Target mags for $39. I buy all they have every time I go there. Normally they only have one or two, and I think I am up to 13 or 14 of them.
The last three months? Not a single 210 mag at Sig. If the mothership doesnt have them, I can only assume lots of other folks dont have them.
A few online suppliers have marked up their price on them enough that its worth waiting, for me.

I’ve had no problem getting Sig and Mec-gar 15 and 20 round magazines for my 226 and 229 this week. My LGS and Osage County for the 229, and SIG had stock for the 226-20 round mags when I ordered Monday evening, and my order shipped with no delay, with tracking showing it will arrive Monday upcoming.

It’s true that getting Mec-gar 20 round 226 magazines is difficult right now. Italy has been hit hard.

Our most recent shipment of P365XL’s came with 2 mags again so maybe supply on mags is catching up.

This ^^^
Since MecGar produces mags for SIG, this has to be the #1 reason for the shortage.
Italy.

That leaves CheckMate and "Circle J" to draw from if they are running.

Supposedly on YouTube, the shortage was mostly for the P320 mags. It was one part MecGar closing in Italy for CoVID and the US Govt jumping the line for M17/M18 magazines, leading to the shortage.

I would have thought Checkmate would also be producing P320 magazines, but all of mine have been “Made in Italy.”

Hi. Im new to the forum. I bought my 365 two weeks ago, filled out the registration and magazine redemption info.
Everything eent through smoothly. I received an email a few days ago stating the magazines were back in stock, as you posted.
I called Sig to ask an appx timeline to expect my magazine. The rep told me the magazine redemption orders were not supplied from in stock mags. That they were separate.
I think thats really not right. My gun was supplied short one magazine. Sig should fulfill the redemptions before selling them to the public.
Wow, sorry for the first post rant, but I think Sig is wrong to do that.

An apology of sorts here. Sig was excellent with regards to getting the magazine shipped out. Total time frame was about 10 days.
I was happy to see the magazine was Made in Italy. I have purchased 2 more on Ebay, came in factory packages, but stamped made in USA
Function perfectly, but curios as to the non Italian made. Covid related?
