Can someone please tell me if these are pre-ban magazines or not?

Thanks!

Impossible to know for sure. IIRC Zipper backs were produced before and during the ban.

If produced during the ban, would they be marked as LEO?

I am 95% certain they are P226 mags. Find you a Sig P226 and try them out!

I know they're P226 9mm factory mags, I just need to know when they were made is all.

I don't believe that the new P226 full capacity magazines have the zipper back anymore.

None have the zipper anymore that I'm aware of.

Based on my pre-'94ban and post-ban P226 mags the zipper back and squarish dimples say they are pre-ban assuming there are no other markings other than the SIG Logos.

My banned LEO mags are clearly marked. My post 2004 standard capacity mags have a year marked on them and lack the zippered back.

I spoke with my friend who is a law enforcement officer. Based on the details of your pictures, those are preban.

I'll take 'em.
