So, if one of you has an XD in 9mm or 40 cal and a set of dial calipers, I need a favor.

Can you measure the magazine and tell me how wide it is?

(left to right measurement, not from to back)

Thanks.

I know for an xd9 you can mod Barrera 92 mags for them but I don't have the dimensions

Thanks. That helps. I have Beretta mags handy.


18.7mm

Metric? Are you seriously going metric on me? [Coffee]

(Fortunately I have a conversion program. 0.7362204724")

:) 0.86 according to my caliper.

By conversion it doesn't quite compute. May want to wait for a second persons numbers.

Thanks. I'm not actually doing anything with an XD or a Beretta mag. Just trying to find a cheap, quick magazine pouch that will work for some Sig 229 magazines.

Well then it sounds like you should be fine. The Beretta mags are also able to be modded to fit a P226 (need to add/move the mag catch), and since P226 mags will fit in a P229, you should be golden.

226 mags will fit in a 229 but 229 mags won't fit a 226. They're too wide.

I was concerned if I got a mag pouch for a XD the 229 mags would fit too tightly.

Xdm 9 mags are 3/32 wider than xd9 mags check stuff for xdm maybe

Actually, the P229-1 mags are slightly wider than the P226 mags but the standard, pre-E2 P229 mags should be the same width, at least according to everything I've read. Unfortunately, I don't have any regular P229 mags to confirm it.

But regardless, it is an exception I didn't mention so I'll concede this one to you. :)

Yep. Mine are the 229-1 mags. I don't have any of the earlier 13 rounders.
