Replacement mag springs

I need replacement springs for Sigarms P220 8 round mags. I found some at gunsprings.com but they will not work in newer Sig mags made by Mec-Gar, and I suspect mine are made by Mec-Gar because they say made in Italy. They also say Sig Sauer, P220-1, 45. They don't say Mec-Gar anywhere though.

Can anyone recommend where I can find springs? Thanks.

** Note: Wolff magazine springs will not fit new Sig 220 magazines made by Mec-Gar**

For P-220 Magazine with Floorplate Locking Tab on Spring (Metal Floorplates)

what kind of floorplate does your magazine have?

Funny, I was about to ask the same question. I found some used 8rnd SS mags I want to get but want to replace the springs. Brownells only seems to offer a spring for the P220 Sport. It doesn't say if it is for a 7 or 8 round tube, however, the tube they offer separately is an 8 rounder. Thoughts?

Contact Wolff springs. They make great products and have exceptional customer service. My duty weapon has Wolff springs in my Mags.

Jeep,
Thanks for the headsup. Unfprtunately, as Nuz found out as well, Wolff's mag springs don't work with the new production Sig mags (made by Mec-Gar).
