I would like to know if the Astra 100 magazine will fit the ASTRA a-80? By specs. they will chamber both 9mm and 45 cal, and are both 15 round staggered magazine.
Send e-mail response to dixon_d@att.net
Thanks,
David

    The mag for the A-100 should fit the A-80, but not the other way around.

    The A-100 has a side mounted mag release. The A-80 has a butt mounted mag release. A mag for the A-80 won't have the cutout for the frame release. A mag for the A-100 will have the cutout which won't matter or intefere with the operation of the A-80.

    BTW - I do not believe the 9 mm and 45 ACP mags will interchange. The feedlips on the 45 magazine will probably be too wide for the 9 mm.
