Does anyone know how long the factory 10-rd magazine for the Sig P239 in 9mm is? Is it flush-fit? If not, how much length does it add? Anyone have pictures?

It's definitely not flush-fit:

I've got 2 of the 10 rounders and I only use them at the range. The extra inch they add only the bottom of the grip completely negates the concealability of the gun itself. When I carry my 239, I only use the normal factory 8 rounders.

I have a few of the 10 rounders, they fit fine, but there is a base pad that is way too thick IMHO. However, it has not interfered with shooting, it is an inch longer than the bottom of the grip frame. It actually gives more room for the little finger on the grip, but I know that many folks don't like the looks of them. I don't mind, I like having the extra rounds when shooting combat match type events.

Thanks, guys. Looks like I'm sticking to the 8-rd magazines. I had no idea that the 10-rd magazines stuck out THAT much.

I had inquired about a 10 round mag for my P-239, Thanks to all for the pictures, I really don't think I need the extra two rounds

How much do the 10rd mags go for?

[Prodigalshooter]

You can get them at CDNN for 29.95, I believe. The thing I like about the 10 rd mag, is in a combat match held locally, many folks are using preban hi-caps. With the 10rd mag and one in the chamber, I have fewer reloads to do on a course of fire that favors high round counts and speed. I still shoot bad scores, but I have fun anyway;).
Were I to use the 239 for carry, I'd stick to the regular 8 rd mag, which I do when shooting IDPA.

I have a couple quick snapshots of the P239 (9mm) with factory 10-round magazine. :D

The magazine is courtesy of SIGforum member "fr8us." The P239 is my own.

Here's a photo of four types of P239 magazines. The one on the left, of course, is the 10-round one. It is followed by the 9mm (8-round), .40 Auto (7-round), and .357 Sig (7-round).

The 10rd mags make it look like a Pez dispenser.:D
