After Market Mags

[jonboy20]

Anyone ever use any after market mags for the CW9 or P9? I got 2 off of ebay and there are no markings on them, might be pro-mag. Just wondering if they are any good.

I have used the after market mags. They functioned fine except there was no slide lock after the last round was shot. I no longer use them, and ordered two factory mags to replace them.

I still have the after market mags in a bag with my gun gear, and if the zombies ever come, I will load them up and have them available for the great war! :)

Had the same issue. I found a slight dent on both lips. I pulled the dent out and yesterday they were both 100%. I only use them for Match's (IDPA). So if they fail its not a big deal to me. I use the two KAHR mags for cc stuff.

No one else makes aftermarket mags for Kahr except Promag. I have four for my MK9 and I like them more than factory because they hold 7 cartridges with only a bit longer magazine base and a finger rest extension.
I fired in excess of 750 rounds from all of them (total) and they never failed in feeding and keeping the slide locked after the last round - never. Not even once. What else can I say?????

I'm glad you've had success with them. I had one (10 rounder) for range use. Not bad, but not 100% reliable for me.
The thing about an auto pistol is, if the magazine fails, you've got an instant single shot.
I'll pay the extra for factory mags.:thumbsup:

I use promags for practice and IDPA with my P9. I have not had any problems with these which surprises me considering the problems I have had with other promag mags.

Stick with factory mags! :deadhorse:

:agree:

I got a couple aftermarket magazines and I should have just saved up a little more and got a factory mag.
