MAG 08 pistol

The other new Polish pistol at MSPO 2008 is the 9mm MAG 08. It is a redesign of the MAG 98 which itself was a redesign of the MAG 95. It looks nice, but I do remember reading complaints about the previous generation MAG pistols somewhere.

The original (from the manufacturers website)

Specjalna Mag98
MAG 98C

The new pistol

Mag-08-500Px 01

Mag-08-500Px 02

From what I can make out the frame is made from aluminum and it takes 15 round and 18 round magazines.

I have done my best to find accurate information about this firearm on the Polish MSPO 2008 website. I do not speak or read Polish so I had to rely on Google Translate. If I got something wrong, please correct me in the comments.

    Main complaint about the gun was its weight. It came from army officers who were used to carry p-64 pistols. Quality of Mag-95 and Mag-98 was more then exeptional. If it comes to US market I more then recomend it
