About Mec-Gar
Mec-Gar is the world's largest dedicated pistol magazine manufacturer and the trusted OEM supplier behind factory magazines for Beretta, SIG Sauer, CZ, Walther, Smith & Wesson, Browning, Colt, Kimber, and many more. Founded in 1965 by Edoardo Racheli in Italy's historic Brescia firearms district, Mec-Gar has produced over 130 million magazines and today ships to more than 90 countries from three manufacturing facilities staffed by over 220 employees.
What makes Mec-Gar unique in the aftermarket magazine world is simple: they are the factory. When you buy a Beretta 92, SIG P226, or CZ 75, the magazine inside the box was likely manufactured by Mec-Gar. Their aftermarket magazines are produced on the same production lines, from the same certified AISI 1010 carbon steel and aircraft-grade 17-7 PH stainless steel, using the same ISO 9001:2015 quality processes as their OEM output — often with the added benefit of flush-fit extended capacity made possible by their patented spring and follower design (U.S. Patent #5,386,657).
Every Mec-Gar magazine is manufactured entirely in-house at their facilities in Gussago and Gardone Val Trompia, Italy. From precision metal stamping and automatic seam welding to proprietary heat treatment in controlled-atmosphere furnaces, Mec-Gar controls every step of the process. Their Anti-Friction Coating (AFC) finish passes over 180 hours of military salt spray testing, while self-lubricating polymer followers and high-tensile music wire springs ensure consistent feeding through thousands of loading cycles. Additional finish options include nickel plating, phosphate (Parkerized), and nitriding for their newest models.
