I hope the backlog is lighter now. I have already been waiting 3 weeks for a tt33 from our local shop, so waiting for this wont be so bad!
Having a retail side to my business, I learned a long time ago that it "takes as long as it takes", and "it will be there when it gets there".

Anyone with comments on the NORC mags?
DLask mags?

Been using WC and SIG mags, all work well in SIG and S&W 1911s. Def. recommend WC mags.

I think he is referring to the Dlask 8 rounders which are a great deal and much better.

I have recently purchased 5 mags from Providence Supplies - 19$ + 1$ for shipping per mag, taxes included. They are brand new, made in USA and working well. They can handle 8 rounds but I feel safer with 7.

Yep, I"ll bet anyone that has ever ordered a Norinco 1911, has had any intentions of staying with the stock grips.
E-Bay has a ton of 'em, and many with free shipping.

they are poo..... 50% slide lock once empty. An inordinate amount of force to get them into the mag well and you just about need a pair of pliers to remove the mags..... The nork mags are a bit wider than any other 1911 mag I own. They are also welded, so it is impossible to change springs or followers. New followers would solve the solid lock issue. A grinder taken to the body of the mag would slim them down and a buffing wheel and polishing compound would finish up the externals of the mags nicely.....


DLask mags?

the Dlask mags are an exact match to the mec-gar mags that I have, other than they say "Dlask" as opposed to "Mec-Gar". They work, and they drop free of all of my 1911s

Personally my favourite 1911 mags are Kimber Tac-Pro mags. 8rnd and they come with 2 sizes of bump pads to suit your tastes. But at $40 a pop the $29 Mec-Gar mags from Marstar or the Dlask mags from Dlask or Canam are very good. I don't think I would pay $2.50 for nork mags.....

Providence supplies is/was selling 7 rnd 1911 mags for under $20 ea. they are colt mags, but they are just as bad as the nork offerings. Welded mag bottom. Standard 40-50s era followers and feed lips. Glitchy follower movement. Won't lock the slide back all the time and has a 50% failure rate at feeding the last cartridge out of the mag.......

I have used Wilson and chip McCormick 10rnds in the past. The chip mags worked well for a short time. Then the springs lost elasticity and started sucking. The Wilson 10rnd mags I have are like my old ford truck..... They keep working well past the time I expected to replace them.

Cheers!
 
Great reply, thanks.

I was concerned about the WC plastic follower but read Wilson lifetime warranty will replace the followers free of charge.

Time to get some 10rnd WC mags.

THNAK YOU!!! :). I'm going to start referencing your post every time some "I need instant gratifcation" guy comes on here whining about how long it takes, and how CANAM 'has had my money' for so long and hasn't updated / that / that / the other thing, and so on, and so on, and so on.

So fed up with people who can't accept reality...
