I'm looking at getting a SIG 226 or 228.
Will magazines from a beretta 92 go with a sig 228? I think I know that answer already but I'm gonna ask anyway:D

Yup, that IS a dumb question. :D

Same caliber, but different manufacturers.

:twak: no I'm not asking if the bullets are the same!
You know that metal thing you put the bullets in before you put it in the gun? The magazine! do the magazines from a 9mm beretta fit a 9mm Sig 226?

Nope, no-go. In fact a Sig mag will not work in all Sig guns, not all Glock mags are interchangable with all glock pistols (even of the same caliber).

You need to purchase the right mags for the gun, there is limited interchangability and only within the same manufacturer.

Yeah, I know what you were asking. I said "different manufacturers", which was meant to be a "no". One manufacturer's magazine will not fit other manufacturers' guns.

When I said "same caliber", I meant that is the only thing those two guns have in common.
