Extra Magazines for SR9

BrentHG · Jan 19, 2016

I'm looking to get a few extra 17 round magazines for my SR9. The OEM magazines are very expensive, but I found this one that's $19.95. Does anyone have any experience with other magazines for the SR9:

I also want to buy a dummy magazine to use for training.

Good price, but out of stock. The Promag site lists them for $27. Still less than Ruger. Promag is the only after market SR9 mag I've ever run across, but don't know how good they are.

My experience is that they fit and feed just fine but don't always lock the slide back.

I've been seeing 2-packs of SR mags (Ruger ) recently for 40ish dollars. I think? Let me look and I'll get back.

I can't say how the pro mag sr9 mags are, but I will say all the experience I have had with them in other guns, and working in a gun shop and range for 7 years, is that they are crap.

Grab A Gun, OEM 2 pack is 42.99, also setup some alerts for Armslist, I see used ones on there every couple of weeks.

That's the consensus for Pro Mags in general. You could try one for range use but i'd never use one if I needed to rely on the gun for serious work.

Bought 4 pro Mags for Mini 14 years ago and they were ok, with no problems, but never had any luck with Pro Mags or Triple K mags for pistols, ended up using them for targets. Only mags that i will buy or use is OEM or Mec-Gar, they both work flawlessly.

I've tried pro-mags once upon a time too. They were excellent magazines...for immediate action drills! :x

I bought 2 Ruger 17 round mags for my 9e (same mags as SR9) for $48 for both new at a local gun store ( Virginia Beach, Virginia) I though that was a pretty good deal considering 1 was $40

I will not buy Promag. If I am going to go NON OEM I go with Mecgar. They actually manufacture mags for many gun manufacturers. I just bought some Mecgars for a Beretta 84, but those are the only exception to OEM. Good luck

Bud's Gun Shop, had a 2 pack, of the 17 rnd. Meggar magazines , for $ 45.33, in November.
I just checked, and they are out of stock. You might check with them in a week or so.
