    17 round magazine from South Africa?

    So I was reading on this website that theres 17 round flush fitting mags available now. Anyone know what brand?

    The original magazine design of the Browning was a bit on the conservative side. There is a new design, imported from South Africa, which holds 17 rounds, and fits like a standard magazine. This pretty much brings the capacity of these guns up to the same level as the Glock, and the rest of the current crop of wonder nines.

    Made by KRD-High-Tec S.R.L. in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The mags have been around since 1994.


    They don't work very well and are a waste of money.

    27275 is correct. Those African HP mags do not work. Only mags to EVER jam my pistol. Threw them right in the trash.
