I bought a few of the 4506 promags, both the 8-round and the extended 10-round ones and they all had issues at first on my 4566TSW. They'd stovepipe and in a couple of cases they were actually so out of spec the trigger wouldn't actually work properly in DA I assume from them rubbing up on the drawbar. I warrantied them and the 10-rounders I have now have worked for a couple hundred rounds now without issues, but I wouldn't trust them until I've put hundreds more through.

Are you asking about 45XX-series mags or 10XX-series mags?
I've got three NIB (i.e., original packaging) S&W 10mm mags.
9-rd capacity, with the white followers which were the last upgrade in the series and are preferred by 10mm fans.
$175.00 per, ...
or all three for $450.00.

They can be found in Houston gun shows.

I have a 4506 and a 745 - mags are interchangeable, yes?
I hesitate to ever say OK to ProMag, but having tweaked the feed lips of many High Standards using a tool for the purpose, a little work can help them out.

I bought four mag tubes, springs, followers and the bases from them two years ago today. All told it cost me $235. As they were out of the base plate catch I had to overpay on eBay for those. Not long after Numrich had complete magazines up for around $50 each.
I thought about buying more but I didn't. I could kick myself for not assembling more or picking up the used magazines as I knew that they would disappear eventually. Life happens and I bought other things including more third gens! At least I have four basically new magazines for my 1076.

4506 mags can always be found on ebay, but you'll pay for the privilege.

Just got back from the range with a 4506. At one point, I glanced down at the mags on the bench and reflected that I'm glad I accumulated 30+ when they were $30-$40.

LOL! ... Ah yeah, no.
Only if those $75 mags are beat to sh*t.
Decent to LNIB 10XX-series mags are $100-$150+, IF you can even find them.
There might be the rare exception where you luck out and find a seller who doesn't know the S&W 10XX market, but given the present internet age of instant information with 2-3 minutes of Google-fu, I wouldn't count on it.

I don't need collector pieces, just something to shoot. I saw some Ruger mags (345?) that looked pretty close, thats why I wondered if there's anything else that might fit. I have ZERO 1006 mags, so my dream gun I finally tracked down is an awkward single shot. My 4506 has one magazine, I'll probably try to find one extra and maybe get a few ProMags and hope they work or bend and tweak until they do.

My recommendation is to do what I have been doing for years.
Go to the oldest local small shops within 100 miles of your home.
Say “you got a bucket full of old magazines somewhere in here?”
And commence your search. I found hundreds of hard to find parts and pieces and magazines this way, often for next to nothing.
It pays off big time.

Yes they are.
I found four at a gun show yesterday, it was a small show in rural Missouri. I don’t think the kind old seller knew what he had. I bought all four at 32 bucks each.
Two weeks prior I bought five at a gun show in Oklahoma for 240. total.
I have been on quite a lucky streak.

There is still a 645 mag for sale in the Classifieds. IDK if that works in a 4506.
