I don't believe there are any legal ones available - I've seen hicaps for the full size at around $100-$125. However, I have heard reports that you can put 12 rds of 9mm in a .40 mag and have it work just fine - the mag body is identical. Of course, that would be illegal, and if you ever needed to use the gun in self defense could potentially get you in hot water.
