Spike says the 9mm Colt Beta mag will work fine in his 9mms.

C'mon...why not? The ultimate bedroom gun, short of a belt-fed!

One thing I noticed with both Sigs. Perhaps it's me with my crappy 57 year old eyes, but for some reason the Sig night sights just seem to be a lot brighter than my Glocks. It could be the Sigs are a bit newer, as they do lose intensity with age. But even next to my Glock 30 which is my newest, the Sig's come off as much more brilliant. Better charged gas cylinders perhaps? Anyway, they really stand out.  Bill T.

I just ordered 4 of these:

And 4 of these:

With the 2 I've got that makes 10. I should be in good shape for a while until I can get a 100 round Beta-C Mag. I just don't like spending a large amount on an expensive semi auto firearm, and have a limited amount of magazines. A gun is only as good as the magazine that feeds it.  Bill T.

I picked up on this thread a little late but Olympic Arms also make AR's in 9mm among other calibers.

I have the polymer mags for my Bushmaster. They work fine and hold the bolt open on the last round but they swell when loaded and don't drop free from the gun. No problems going in.  It might be different in your rock river depending on tolerances.

Thanks Guns,

The Rock River Arms was mainly for Melanie, and the Sig is for me.  Bill T.

I heard that about the Polymer mags. But for the price, I just couldn't pass them up. Another nice thing about Polymer mags is they don't scratch up your magwell.  Bill T.
