1911 Mag capacity question:

[ghostntheshell]

Just researching mags right now for my Norc 1911 Sport.

I see there are the standard 7 round mags available - and 8 rounds - and 10 rounds.

Will all of these mags seat in the Norc 1911 Sport?

I am not sure of you need specific versions of the 1911 to support the larger magazine size.

Can anyone advise?

I use the McCormick Power 10 mags and the Cobramag HV 10 rd mags in my Norc Sport with no problems Should be able to use any 1911 mag.

7 round mags and some 8 round ones will fit flush in your 1911. Many of the better 8 round 1911 mags are slightly longer than the grip of the gun but the tiny bit of extra length is more or less hidden in the basepad of the mag. 10 round mags will definitely fit in your gun bu they will extend well past the bottom of the grip.

They'll all fit your gun fine, but you may see differences in reliability between different sizes of mags and between mags of different manufacturers...
