10 Round .45ACP 1911 Mags?

[mmattockx]

I am thinking of buying a few 10 round mags for my Norc commander length 1911 in .45ACP. Are there any brands to avoid? Good deals to be found? Best dealer/supplier to order from?


Thanks,
Mark

I got out of the 1911 game a few years back, but I had great experience with CMC magazines. Dunno who has them nowadays.

Tripp Research also makes a 10rd for .45. Pricey but you get what you pay for with 1911 mags it seems.

Agreed. Chip McCormick or Tripp Research would be the only 10-round mags that I would trust to be consistently reliable.

Chip McCormick 10-round Power Mags are available through Arms East, but you have to order the Tripp mags direct from Tripp Research in Texas. They are good to deal with and do ship a lot of mags to Canada.

Agree with this for best quality and value.

Wilson Combats and Chip McC are the ones I use and they have both functioned perfectly. I think the WC have better followers but I like how the CMC have witness holes for every round. I am split 50/50 on whether or not I prefer having the extended basepad thing... though I think the WC looks a little ###ier.

I was unable to decide which ones I liked better so I went with both. I have also heard the Tripp mags are great too.

Ramline s@cks IMHO.

Avoid the cash wasteage buddy.

Did you hit the wrong thread, or did I miss where someone mentioned Ramline products?

Their stocks are pretty crappy, I will certainly agree with you on that.

Marstar mecgar.


35$ each IIRC, no problems with any of mine.

As well as their Ruger MkI/II mags. Useless pieces of excrement.

Don't these 10 round mags stick out a fair bit?

 

[alexD92]

Yep, something around 1 inch.

Yeah, I figured that out after I replied. I didn't realize they made anything aside from POS stocks. Thanks for the warning on those.

10 rounders can be hit or miss. My ww2 colt meggars worked fine, my friends newer colt choked on them.

I'm not a big fan of the CZ75 Mec Gar mags....I find they suck balls. If you can get 100% metal (except follower of course) mags, then that would be the best option. All Mec Gar mags I've scene are 1/3 plastic at the bottom, but I don't know about the 1911 ones though.
