I'm curious as well. Had planned to convert some 41 mags.

Walther made mags for the 208. They accept us credit cards and shipping for 2 of them was $10 to my house in Ga.!!

I've been using these mags in 208s with no problems. They probably won't last as long as metal mags but they cost much less and can be replaced if needed. As mentioned you will have to file (sand) them to fit, including flattening the tab near the base so the retainer clip seats properly. This photo shows the mags before and after filing, the arrow pointing at the flattened tab:

X-Esse mags work in the 208 as well if the same mod is made regarding the small tab on the back discussed AND the area below the tab is opened up as in the picture.
