Product Evolution
The Walther P99 was modified several times throughout its production history, as were the magazines. When the P99 was introduced the magazine capacities were 16-rounds for 9x19mm Parabellum and 12-rounds for .40 S&W and the magazines had witness holes on both sides of the magazines. Later the magazine capacities were reduced to 15-rounds for 9x19mm Parabellum and 11-rounds for .40 S&W and witness holes at the rear of the magazine to view the loading condition were introduced.

Famous quotes containing the words product and/or evolution:
“The end product of child raising is not only the child but the parents, who get to go through each stage of human development from the other side, and get to relive the experiences that shaped them, and get to rethink everything their parents taught them. The get, in effect, to reraise themselves and become their own person.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“By contrast with history, evolution is an unconscious process. Another, and perhaps a better way of putting it would be to say that evolution is a natural process, history a human one.... Insofar as we treat man as a part of nature—for instance in a biological survey of evolution—we are precisely not treating him as a historical being. As a historically developing being, he is set over against nature, both as a knower and as a doer.”
—Owen Barfield (b. 1898)
