Does anyone know if 10 round magazines are available for the P-220 in 9mmP? The pistol comes standard with 9 round magazines. Perhaps there is a different base plate available that will accomodate an extra round (or rounds)?

SIG Sauer only offered nine round magazines for the P220 9mm.

But there for European bottom release guns and not US side release.

No ten round magazines available anywhere. Nine is hard enough to find.
 
I just purchased one of a large shipment of new P-220's chambered in 9mmPara. These guns are identical in every way to the .45ACP version, except the hole at the end of the barrel isn't quite as large..;) Price is $795 Canadian (US$500).
It has the "American" mag release button. I have found a source for genuine SIG mags for the pistol right here in Vancouver. They cost $68 Canadian each, or about US$40. That seems to be the "going price" for genuine SIG mags both sides of the border. They are, of course, 9 round magazines. The two mags that came with the gun have both ".38 Super" and under that "9mmPara" stamped on the baseplates. The new mags have only "9mmPara" stamped on the baseplates. This lends credence to the story that these guns were converted by Sigarms USA from .38 Super to 9mmPara as a marketing decision in order to sell them in Canada, where 10 rounds mag capacity is the max allowed by law. IMHO, Sigarms should have left them alone as .38 Supers...:confused:
