Sig P220/P245/P220Compact mag compatability?

[Hauptmann]

I have two P220s and about 10 8rd magazines. I'm thinking about getting ahold of either a P245 or the new P220 Compact as a backup/CCW. My question is, do the P220 8rd magazines work in both the P245 and the P220 Compact? Magazine interchangability is important to me as a backup pistol so that I can draw duty magazines from my pouches to use in my backup pistol. Thanks.

Yes they will work.
They will stick out of the bottom of the grip though.

Well I'm asking because I heard that the grip angle to the P220 Compact was slightly different. That would mean that it might require a different magazine to function properly.

I'm actually thinking about try to get a P245. Don't like the new beaver tail. Sig needs to get rid of the 1911 designers.

X-Grip makes an adapter for the 8 round mags that fit the 245/220 Compact models.

I don't recall any mention of there being a grip angle change when Sig changed from the P245 to the P220 Compact.

They should work.
