      Quite a price difference between them and S&W magazines. Specifically for my S&W .40 M&P compact. $35 $36 versus $25 $26 Pro Mag with the lower price other wise no question. Anybody here have experience with Pro Mag magazines. Stay the heck away purchase? Good Bad Indifferent? If they are crap do NOT want to find out when I NEED the weapon Most!  Lips Sealed Only found one report and out of the three mags in question-same size I'm considering-only one of the three he purchased held the advertised 10 rounds. The other 2 would only hold 9 rounds. So again going to the collective here that IS Very Helpful most times. And as Always-T I A!  cooldude RIDE SAFE.

Just MHO, but stick to OEM or go upmarket (I.E. Chip McCormick). Don't go down market on magazines, ESPECIALLY if this is for serious social usage and not just plinking...

Just one review I found (it wasn't positive).  But 11 years old.

I've never had any myself.

On the other hand, Mecgar gets all good reviews.

I never had much success with aftermarket magazines.  I use only OEM.

I bought a couple Pro-Mags a while back for an odd ball 9 mm I have, they didn't work, but I wasn't out much either.
I like Wilson Combat, Chip McK, Check Mate, OEM, Kimber
