So after 30 years, I got back the 915 that I gave to my father.   I'd given him 4 mags,  but I'd like to get a few more.   I doubt factory mags are available base on my limited searching.   Are any of the after market mags worth a crap?

Any 59 series mag will work.  Mecgars are fine.

Used police trade-in S&W mags do show up now and then.    Mec-Gar works perfect in my 915.

Thank you,  gentlemen.   I'll add Mecgars to the list.

I actually preferred MecGar to factory.  The last third generation magazine I bought new in the package was assembled incorrectly


I loved the nickel finish 17 round magazines and would absolutely buy some again if I had a third gen.

Mec-Gars come in both "Factory 15 rounder" and the "+2 (17 round) but still factory" sizes mags.

I have been running the 17s in my 5904 for several years without issue because "More Bullets is rarely a Bad Thing" applies.

Many don't know it, but Mec-Gar is the "Factory" for many premium brands "OEM" mags.
