Sig P365 magazine questions...

Does anyone have a P365 yet? I have a question about the mag. I saw a pic of the mag recently, double stack on the bottom, single stack on the top, would love to know what the follower looks like and how they made that work.

I don't have one yet, but I went through the factory Armorers course. The spring collapses within itself on compression and keeps the follower centered. There is just enough width in the cartridges and follower to keep balanced upwards pressure without one or the other trying to tilt and jam. Hope that helps.

Almost all pistol magazines are single feed.

It will be interesting to see how these mags hold up over time. Hopefully for Sig lovers the price will go down.At $40.00 each, I would say on the expensive side. I think Sig would do well to redesign that very big take down lever. Looks kind of silly on a small gun.

Glock mags, M&P mags can be found for $25 a mag before shipping (Glock mags closer to $20). A lot of other SIG mags can be had for $30. Greg Cotes, gunmagwarehouse, etc.

Right, but assuming Carl is stateside my point is that explains his comment regarding magazine prices.
