New 228 mags do not hold 10....

Hi,

My mags for my 228 only seem to hold 9 rounds, and thats even tough. Will these break in eventually? Thanks!
 
When I bought my P228 a couple of years ago it came with two ten-rounders. One took ten rounds easily, the other took three strong men and a drill press to get that tenth round in there (disclaimer: nobody, and I do mean NOBODY should actually try that :) ). I bought one of those mag loader devices (cheap plastic), which helped tremendously. After about 6 months of steady use, the magazine loosened up enough that I could load ten without mechanical assistance, as it were.

Annoying, but they both fed flawlessly, so no worries.
 
Bullitt, I hate to tell you this but the quote in your signature is bogus, it was never said, at least by A. Hitler. A urban legend as it were.
 
Jim V,
The quote was translated, but I challenge you to prove my quote bogus. I pulled it from a history book I used in college. I'm not saying your wrong, I'm just saying prove it. False things do get printed.
 
Jim V,

You got my attention with what you said. Not remembering exactly where I had gotten that quote from I began to do a little research. I emailed my professor from college and asked him if he could help. He reponded and then passed me on to another professor who was a little knowledgable of the subject.

JimV you are right and I stand corrected. Thank you for not believing everything you read and contributing to my knowledge base.

Here is a link that supports Jim V argument:
