sr45 question

[my70mav]

I have looked but can't find any answer and I don't know anyone with an SR45.

Do they magazines fit in the SR40?

[redhemi]

Too big.

[Zartan]

Why?

[Marthor]

45 magazines don't ever fit in 40

[redhemi]

Put a 45 cartridge next to a 40 and you'll see why.

Mostly keeping my eye open for spare mags for my .40 that may hold a couple extra rounds.

When/if they make a compact sr45 I plan to get one so they could work for that as well.

I know the physical specs on the pistol are wicked close to the 40 so I was just hoping.
