Magazine for SA-35 9mm Pistols for Standard Frames (No Magazine Well)

If you’ve been running the stock 15-round magazine in your Springfield Armory SA-35 and wishing for a few extra rounds before the slide locks back, this magazine is the practical fix. Designed specifically for standard-frame SA-35 pistols (those without an aftermarket magazine well), this component replaces the factory mag and gives you either 17 or 19 rounds of 9mm capacity. It solves the common frustration of wanting more rounds without changing the grip profile or adding bulk. The base pad is blended to match the frame contour, so it feels like it belongs—no sharp edges or awkward snag points.

Compatibility

• Springfield Armory SA-35 pistols with standard frames (no magazine well installed)
• Not compatible with SA-35 pistols fitted with an Apex Tactical Magazine Well (choose the separate magazine for that setup)
• Works with quality domestic 9mm ammunition for reliable feeding

Key Features

• Increased capacity: 17 or 19 rounds vs. stock 15 rounds—your choice

Install Difficulty: 2 out of 5

No tools required—just load and go. The magazine drops right into your SA-35. If you’re swapping base pads, you’ll need a small punch to drive out the retaining pin. Watch our install video on the product page for a quick walkthrough.

Short FAQ

Will this fit my SA-35 if I have a stock frame?

Yes, this magazine is made for standard SA-35 frames without a magazine well. If your pistol has an Apex Magazine Well installed, please order the separate magazine listed for that setup—the base pads are specific to each configuration.

What’s the difference between the 17-round and 19-round versions?

The 17-round version uses a standard-length base pad for a flush fit. The 19-round version extends the base pad slightly for those extra two rounds—both are designed to feed reliably with quality domestic ammo.

Can I use this in other 9mm pistols?

No, these magazines are specifically modified for the SA-35’s magazine catch and feed geometry. They won’t work in other pistols like the Browning Hi-Power or other 9mm models.
