CZ SP-01 Magazines

Well folks, as many of you might have noticed, high capacity magazines have become as scarce as an honest Chicago politician.    I was sitting on six factory CZ 18 rounders, and was a bit uncomfortable without a few more spares.

Having heard good things about Mec-Gar's CZ mags, and having heard they are actually the CZ OEM manufacturer, I put my best google-fu to work and snagged the last 5 17 round Meg-Gar's from Copes. (http://www.copesdistributing.net/).    I was able to run about 500 rounds over two range trips through them and was pleased with function.   A light cycle so far, but no failures.    I've since added the Mec-Gar +2 baseplates, bringing them up to 19 rounders.  It's part #F42099 if you're curious.   They have also functioned flawlessly with another 500 or so rounds spread over the 5 mags.

Going with the separate base plates cost a bit more.  But, when the masses are panic buying, a $40 19 rounder I can assemble myself is still better than the $33 19 rounder that is out of stock...  everywhere.
