Steyr M9 questions... Old model Vs. New model

[Kingofthehill]

I have the new Steyr M9 and it came with 2 15rd magazines (i think their 15)... Today I bought the older version of the Steyr M9 and it only came with 1 mag and its a 10 rounder

Are these magazines interchangeable? They both fit each other nice and smooth and they have a firm latch but i don't know if the actualy height or position of the ammo is correct. It looks good but im not sure.

I have a chance to jump on 10 Steyr M9 mags for sure for the new version but neither the seller or myself know it if works in the older version.

I don't need 10 mags for just that 1 gun, but if it fits and works in both then im gonna jump on the deal.

steyrclub forum is down so i thought i would try here

Thanks

Yes, they're interchangeable.

You can thank Uncle Klinton for the 10 rounders.

Very cool... from your post and the small ammount of info out there, im gonna take the leap and grab the 10 mags.

10 mags for $150... can't beat that when they are selling for $23 a piece at CDNN.

You'll also find that the frame and slides from the M9 and M9A1 are fully interchangeable. The Steyr is a truly modular firearm.

Similar to glocks the uppers are all modular on the M and MA1 series with 9mm, .40s&w, .357sig. Check out steyrclub forums for more info on the pistols. Also i made some videos on it
