Tactical Sport Magazine 40/9 compatibility?

[MoRivera]

Hello All,

Was wondering if someone could shed some light on this.  As many may know, the magazines for both a 9mm and .40 caliber CZ 75/SP01 (at least the Mec Gar ones) share the same body/follower/feed lips.  So they are either marked as for both 9mm./40 or if you get a .40-cal Mec Gar, it will also function the same for 9mm, just hold a few more rounds.  That's what's nice about having a .40 cal TS 'Long Slide' mated to an SP01 frame and a conversion barrel (and tuned extractor), I can just switch barrels/recoil springs to change caliber's and use the same magazines.

Does the same hold true for the Tac Sport magazines?  For example, if I get a .40 caliber Tac Sport, and I have a conversion barrel for 9mm, can I use the same magazines that came with they .40 like with the 75/SP01?  Or are they more specific with the TS?  Thanks in advance.

No. TS mag are wider. The 9mm TS mags are rebid to make the inside of the body of the mag smaller. The 40 TS mag will allow 9mm rounds to go around the follower and jam the mag up.
