I like the S & W one's. Also the 6900 series (12 rounds in a high cap) will work you just have the finger extension that sticks down. I like that I can have a rifle and pistol that use the same ammo & mags. I have not used anything but factory for the Camp 9 or 6900's
I rush in where others flee.0 -
Smokeeater, you are dead on.
I just love the combination of the S&W 6906 with which I use both the 12 round factory mags you mention or the 15 shot SS S&W factory police mags with the "Grip Extender" that I can use in both the Camp 9 or my 6906.
I might have a couple of the factory S&W 15 shot "Police Mags" that I would part with---have to do some digging.
If interested.

has anyone tried the eagle 17 rd clips? they are really cheap right now .thanks don 0 -
I haven't tried the Eagle brand, but have found that most high-capacity magazines being sold these days at "bargain prices" do not work well. Most can probably be fixed--if one has the skills--and time!
If I remember correctly, the Eagle mags don't have a normal coil spring behind the follower that "pushes" the follower/rounds up; instead Eagle used a rolled flat spring, riveted near the top of the magazine, that "uncoiled" below the follower. The follower/rounds would be "pulled-up" by the spring trying to "recoil itself".
The thing that concerned me about possible reliability problems, was the friction of rounds on the flat spring along the sides of the magazine and the rivet point at the top near the feed lips.
Again, I have not tried them, but the design looked questionable.
If they're cheap enough, buy one and give it a try, I'm as curious as you to know how well they work.0 -
I purchased a thirty round clip, about a year ago from cheaper than dirt, for my camp 9, it has worked very well. The only problem that I have had with it is if I accidently rested the gun on the base of the clip while firing. This caused the magazine to not feed properly.
Love my camp9, it is very accurate and fun to shoot.
