They already have 17rd mags in their M9s. Only thing higher that I am aware of is the XDM9 at 19rounds and the FN 5.7 at 20 rounds.

 

Aren't GI contract ones still just 15, like standard factory mags?

I don't know to be honest. Anyways, 15 vs 17-19 isn't that big of a deal considering it is a backup weapon and rarely used outside of training.
