You have to keep an eye out for Mecgar 15 rounders. When you see them, buy them. Many places will notify you when they come in stock. You can always do a couple of 10 rounders for drills until the 15s are back.

I recently ordered some from Suarez international- have yet to receive them and have been unable to contact them telephonically or have they responded to my emails requesting status

Very disappointing this lack of communication

I read recently they had a change in ownership. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

Quick check showed some CZ 15 round Compact mags for about $43 each here:

https://gunmagwarehouse.com/cz-75-compact-9mm-15-round-magazine.html

I've bought from them before and got what I ordered.


Just to be done with it, I went ahead and bit the bullet and ordered a few of these “factory” 15-rd. Mags @ $43 a pop (they look like Mec Gar mfg. with the blue follower and as described).

I’m glad I ordered when I did because now they’re sold out! Now I don’t see anyone at all with CZ Compact 15-rd. mags. No telling when they’ll be back in stock anywhere.

I found a pair this morning on ebay while looking for a CZ hard case to tote the pistol of choice to the range without having to dig its box out of storage. Found a  new /used SP07 case with everything but the firearm included. Paperwork, 2 magazines. looks like 2 back straps and cleaning rods. $80 shipped. I now have two spares for  my shadow ll compact and the hard case I was looking for. Sometimes I can get lucky.

Got the “CZ USA” 9mm compact 15-rd mags (blue follower) from Gun Mag Warehouse today:

https://gunmagwarehouse.com/cz-75-compact-9mm-15-round-magazine.html 

Comparing these mags with the bona fide blue follower Mec Gar 15-rd mags, aside from the logos on the front (MecGar / Made in Italy vs the CZ pistol logo) these mags appear to be identical in almost every way down to the way the mag tube is cut, so I’m gonna say they’re both made by Mec Gar.

The only other difference is that the “CZ USA” magazine has witness holes on the left side for up to 11 rounds marked “.40” — obviously these mags & followers are interchangeable between these two calibers.

So that also means that any MecGar / CZ P-06 11 / 12 round .40 S&W mags lying around should accommodate and feed at least 15 rounds of 9mm.

Apparently CZ USA has 15-rd. Compact mags in stock now for $39 to $43.75 a pop. SKU# 11123 are “factory” (probably MecGar mfg.) mags and SKU# 11123A are assembled from parts at CZ USA, “probably” with MecGar parts. Shipping department is currently backlogged, though, due to staffing issues.

Also apparently back in stock here @ $43 a pop:

First of the year tax time everyone lets their stock run down. They'll be back shortly.

No such luck.  It’s July 1 and still not available.

You sign up for the "back in stock" notification and wait. There were some recently available but they sold out in a hurry.

There are plenty of MecGar 17 rd. 75B mags in stock all over for @ $25 each. These work great in a 75 Compact, though they stick out a little, which actually makes them easier to insert and remove under stress than flush-fit mags, in addition to holding 2 or 3 more rounds than the two 14 or 15 round mags that originally came with these pistols (that is, if you live in a Free State).

I have a slew of mags for both the full size and compacts so I'm not pressed in the least. Unfortunately the Mec-Gars for the compacts are in short supply at this point and that's on them not CZ.
