Individual compact magazines for sale? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

I'm sure this has been discussed, but a search turned up little useful information. Is there anywhere to purchase individual magazines for the 45 Compact yet? I'm interested in both the short 10 rounders and the extended w/ grip sleave 13 rounders.... or are we still gonna be stuck waiting a while?

I see the spacers to use a normal full lenght magazine with the compact, but not original full length mags w/ sleave or the flush fitting compact magazines for the 45.

*shrug* both of the local gun shops have Compact .45 13 rd magazines with XD Gear sleeve and 10 rd magazines typically in stock. They were out of 13rd mags when I bought the pistol but had them in a few days later.

The ten round magazine you linked is a full length (for the service or tactical models), reduced capacity magazine for use in states with mag capacity restrictions. I am looking for the shorter 10 round magazines that fit flush inside a 45 compact. The ones you show would protrude from the bottom. True you can put a sleave on it, but then it is no longer compact. I'm not looking for these magazines for the purpose of only having 10 rounds, but for the purpose of compactness...

edit: I see your edit. Sorry...

I called Springfield Armory customer service and was able to order both the 10 round and 13 round magazines for the 45 compact.
The customer service rep that I spoke with was very helpful and seemed to be very customer friendly.

+1. Call Springfield. I ordered two of the 13 round with sleeves and they ran about $36 each.
