This pistol comes with two OEM 13 round magazines, so with one in the chamber, you have 14 rounds initially, with 13 more with a magazine change. The 380 cartridge is a bit on the low powered side, it's chief advantage is low recoil which allows a return to target acquisition a bit faster than say, a pistol firing .45 ACP. Still, it would be nice to acquire a few additional magazines in case one of the originals gets damaged at the range. If you accidentally drop a loaded magazine on cement your chances of damaging the feed lips are pretty high.

Speaking of Sigarms pistols. I almost bought a new P232. The only real stopper for me was the magazine release on the pistol butt instead of the proper place under the thumb, behind the trigger. Not a big deal on a back up firearm, and maybe I'll get one someday still. Nicely made, no doubt.

What about a P220, ever think about owning one?
