Description
This Mec-Gar 20-round magazine is engineered for the Taurus PT92 and PT99 platform, giving you the extended capacity you need without sacrificing reliability. Built in Italy with the same manufacturing standards that have made Mec-Gar the go-to magazine supplier for major firearms manufacturers and militaries worldwide, this mag combines proven design with materials built to last.
Construction and Material Quality
The tube is constructed from heat-treated carbon steel, which means it can handle the repeated loading and unloading that comes with regular range use or competition shooting. Inside, you'll find a high-impact polymer follower paired with high-tensile music wire spring that work together to keep rounds properly aligned and feed them smoothly into your pistol. All the internal components are interlinked to maintain consistent performance even after extended use.
Anti-Friction Coating and Drop Protection
The anti-friction coating on internal surfaces reduces friction during loading, making it easier to top off the mag even when your hand is tired or sweaty. This coating also provides superior corrosion resistance if the magazine gets exposed to moisture or harsh conditions. The Drop Protection System (DPS) polymer floorplate is another practical feature that reduces shock when the magazine gets dropped on hard surfaces during training or competition, which extends the magazine's lifespan. The floorplate design also fits more efficiently into standard competition mag boxes compared to other extended capacity options.
A Standard That Works
With 60 years of magazine manufacturing experience, Mec-Gar understands what works and what doesn't. This 20-round configuration pairs well with the PT92 and PT99, giving you genuine extra capacity without compromising fit or function. Whether you're working on accuracy at the range or preparing for competition, having those extra rounds means fewer magazine changes and more time focused on your shooting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this 20-round magazine work with both the PT92 and PT99?
Yes, this Mec-Gar magazine is compatible with both the Taurus PT92 and PT99 in 9mm. The two models share the same magazine well, so you can use this 20-round mag interchangeably between them.
What makes the anti-friction coating useful?
The anti-friction coating reduces friction when loading rounds into the magazine, making it faster and easier to top off even when your hands are tired or sweaty. It also provides superior corrosion resistance, helping the magazine last longer when exposed to moisture or humid environments.
Does the Drop Protection System floorplate actually prevent damage?
The DPS polymer floorplate is designed to absorb shock and reduce impact damage when the magazine is dropped on hard surfaces, which is common during training, competition, or tactical drills. While no floorplate can prevent all damage from a hard drop, this system significantly extends the magazine's service life compared to standard basepads.
How does this Mec-Gar magazine compare to factory Taurus magazines?
Mec-Gar has supplied magazines to major firearms manufacturers and militaries for over 60 years, and their magazines are often preferred over factory options. The combination of heat-treated steel, anti-friction coating, and DPS technology makes this mag durable and reliable for range work, competition, and defensive use.
