I have a used sig 220 on the way and it only has one magazine. I can get 3 of the act brand 8 round mags for just over 60 shipped or I can get 3 sig brand mags either 8 or 10 with the extension for 107 shipped on optics planet. Are the sig brand mags worth the extra?

Lots will say no they aren't.. But in my personal opinion, they are worth the extra 47 dollars.

Congrats on your P220!! Yeah, ACT mags are sold cheap!! My suggestion is to think about how you'll use this gun. If she's ever used in a self defense role, I wouldn't rely on these ACT mags at all.

Cheers

Ok so is 107 for two 8 round and one 10 shipped a good price?

Yeah well, it's an fair retail price. Usually, I'll wait until someone has a mag sale/promotion that'll probably save ya $20 or so...

Have you seen what people are trying to sell them for used on eBay! I saw used 8 rounders for 40 plus and one of the 10 round for 60

You're right - those are some bad Ebay deals!!

These are the best deals I see right now. CDNN may ship free, and Top Gun ships USPS Priority pretty fast, but with a charge. Both offer the 10rd mag at about the same price as the 8 rounder.

Be aware that P220 mags have issues loading some hollow points. For example, Hornady's Critical Defense cartridges are a little too long for most 220 mags. Also, 10rd mags don't work in my P220 MSE at all...

I hope it works! Think federal hst will work?

Federal HST has a rounded bullet profile and should work, but I haven't tried them.

The Hornady XTP has a tapered bullet profile with a large hollow point. Those hang on the beveled crimps at the top front of the newer mags just enough to prevent feeding. They work fine on older P220 mags that have less of a crimp.

Right! This comes up every so often. Here's a recent thread

I had a German P220 and own a new P220 Equinox.

All 6 Stainless, SIG mags, Made in Italy, feed Remington Golden Saber, 230 gr JHP ammo, with no problems.

Federal HSTs have always ran well in my 220s with 7 and 8 round mags. I only have 7&8 round mags. Not really sure how they would perform through 10 round mags though.

 

[rsgates]

my 220 compact with Sig mags runs anything I feed it, Ball, SWC, HP, TCN, etc. No experience with ACT mags in it.

 

[soiledpamper]

act mags work fine, but for a carry gun i would definitely use sig mags.

Just a heads up. Sigs website is having 20% off select mags. P220 included
