What guns have interchangeable mag's between the full/compact and or subcompact models????
I know Springfield XD and Glock all models take the same mags.... anything else????

the compact Springfield 1911 will work with a full sized 1911 magazine, but the full sized 1911 will not work with the shorter compact. I just use my compact magazines in the gun it self pack full sized 1911's everywhere else so I do not mix them up.

It's been a while since I tested it, but at one of my local sporting goods places, I tested a Taurus 24/7 mag in my Millennium Pro and vice versa, and both seemed to fit. I have not tested this at a range, so I don't know about feeding, but the mags fit in the mag wells seemingly perfectly.
Hope that helps.

I really like Glocks for their magazine interchangeability.
Dang that's a long word to type. :) I hope I spelled it right. I also like the 1911's for that same reason. I haven't been staying up on what's new in the "gun world" so I'm sure there are plenty more autoloaders that have this feature, and I'm interested in which ones they are.

The Sig 226 Full size Mags work in the 228 and 229 compact as long as they are in the same caliber. But the 228 and 229 mags do not work in the 226, due to the mags being to short to catch the mag lock.

Also the new Sig 250 has complete inter changeable mags. In fact the whole gun is interchangeable. You can change the body type from a full to a compact to a subcompact in a matter of seconds. You can even change calibers by switching out the barrels and mags, taking you from a 9mm to a 40.cal or a 357. to even a 45.ACP. The Transform of modern firearms. Now that is cool stuff. 8)
