Mec-Gar Optimum 9mm Magazine for CZ 75B/85B/SP-01/Shadow I & II - Steel Anti-Friction Black

The Mec-Gar Optimum 9mm magazine for CZ 75B, 85B, SP-01, Shadow I, and Shadow II pistols is built for shooters who run their guns hard—whether on the range, in competition, or in the field. With a 19-round capacity and an anti-friction coating that cuts friction during loading and handling, this steel magazine reduces malfunctions while adding genuine corrosion resistance. The design is engineered from the ground up for reliable function and durability in demanding use.

Drop protection matters when magazines hit concrete or get jostled in a rig. The Optimum's polymer floorplate is engineered to absorb shock and reduce the risk of failure from hard impacts—something self-defense and competition shooters understand well. The floorplate geometry also compresses more efficiently into competition ammo boxes, a thoughtful detail for folks running IPSC, USPSA, or other action shooting sports.

Construction is serious: heat-treated carbon steel tube, high-tensile music wire spring, and a high-impact polymer follower keep everything running smooth through hundreds of rounds. Internal components are interlinked for consistent alignment and feeding. This is a no-nonsense, working magazine built by Mec-Gar USA, a brand with deep roots in quality magazine manufacturing.
