New Member and this is my first post to a great forum. I have a beretta 92FS Compact. I am having a problem finding an extra magazine. I ordered two from Beretta and received them however, they were the thich 15 round magazines. I need the narrow ( I believe 8 round magazine). Advice anyone?

There used to be a wide selection of pattern mags available for most production guns. I used to buy Megger Magazines, and never had any problems with any of them. Whether they are available still, of in the model you need I dont know, but it shouldn't be difficult to find out.

yep meg-gar makes a fine magazine as a matter of fact they are the contractor that makes many oem mags for some of the gun makers. but sad to say they no longer produce the magazine for a beretta type m

I think that is what you are looking for. 10 round mags for a Beretta 92FS Compact.

oscarmayer · 03-26-2009, 06:09 AM

nope a type m is a slim line single stack 9mm with a 8 round magazine .

chemfantry · 03-26-2009, 07:01 AM

ohhhhhh. Didn't even see the type m in the subject. My apologies.

oscarmayer · 03-26-2009, 07:17 AM

no problem the type m is often overlooked not sure how long it was made but i do know they are hard to find

chemfantry · 03-26-2009, 07:25 AM

I had to look it up. I'd never heard of it, but you live and you learn. This is the only place I could find one, and they are asking $50 for them. Never done business with them, but they popped up while I was reading about the Type M. The magazine is Order # JM92M

thanks for the link at least i know where to find spares now . not sure i want to pay 50 bucks for one

Bindernut · 03-26-2009, 10:58 AM

Ditto on the link thank-you!

I've got a friend with a 92FS-M and he was in the same boat as I am with my Sig P6 with those hard to find and/or expensive single-stack mags.
Would be nice if one of the aftermarket companies would pick up some of those "oddball" models, but I suppose it's a supply & demand thing.

oscarmayer · 03-26-2009, 11:04 AM

if the after market company is a good one. usa and triple k come to mind as not so good. my sig 225 i was lucky when i bought it , came with 6 extra factory mags

Yeah, USA isn't all that great...I've never tried anything from Triple-K.
Yes you got lucky with your P225! I got two mags with my P6 and was able to scrounge up one factory P225 mag (still new in the bag) covered in dust at a pawn shop for cheap.

Thanks for all this help. I bit my bullet and ordered the expensive magazine this evening. It has certainly been a problem finding one.
Thanks again for all the help,
JER

The Mag your looking for is very rare. I have seen them at $75 a piece on BrandX. If you can find it grab it. I traded my Type M with 4 mags for a full size 92FS because it so hard to find mags. I love the Type M its a great shooter. I traded it a Beretta collector.

oscarmayer · 05-27-2010, 07:39 AM

there is one listed on a gun auction site but be very careful this one looks to be an after market magazine i think both pro-mag and triple K made magazines for these things, both are junk ..... just my opinion

MCO_1 · 12-09-2011, 02:19 PM

Hello, I apologize for bringing up an old thread but if anyone needs mags for the Beretta 92FS-M I have about 35 of them. They are new Beretta mags not aftermarket the the part number is JM92M and the mags are marked PB CAL 9 PARA-MADE IN ITALY. If anyone is interested keep an eye on ********* as i will be listing them this weekend or contact me through the fourm..Thanks and have a great Holidays...Mike
