Just what is the internal difference between the Hi-Power 10-round and hi-capacity magazines? Is it just different springs, perhaps with a spacer?
Reason I'm asking is that my ordered FN Hi-Power SFS is coming with three 10-round magazines. If it's simply a spring swap (Wolff?), great. Otherwise the magazines won't get much use and I'll be spending some more bucks for 13-round mags.

I think the 10 round mags have a spacer at the bottom, I don't think it's just springs. For fun, pick up the MecGar 20 rounders. They aren't that much more expensive, and have proved reliable for me during practice sessions.

...and the plastic spacer incorporates a "rat trap" spring that provides drop free operation with the mag safety still in place.

One of the few cases of making lemonaide out of the '94AWB. I prefer the 10 rounders in my BHP with the mag disconnect and MecGar 15's in the tuned BHP.
