Default SIG 225A1

Not a member on any SIG forums, so thought I'd ask here.

Love my old German 225, and I have a new 225-A1 on the way. But I'm unclear after reading reviews if the new gun will accept the old 225 mags, or just the ones from the 239?

Anyone got a new gun? Comments about it?

Thanks!

My buddy is picking one up tomorrow. I'll text him and once he replies I'll post it.

Okay, he says that the 225A1 uses a "hybrid mag" that shares a lot of the same properties of the 239, but it is NOT 100% identical. Also the 225A1 will not accept the original 225 mags. He then told me about this video...
