1911 mag question

[S.Gervais]

So i just recently got my first 1911, a ruger sr1911! Pretty nice looking gun. I'm looking for advice on good magazines for it. I heard wilson combat are the best, but I've never come across any online anywhere. Appreciate any advice you guys could give me.

Dlask Arms has 8 rd 1911 mags for $25 each. They have the rounded followers which I like. No issues with them. Check their website. They're in Van.

Kimber Tac Pro mags are in my opinion one of the best values around. The mags have replaceable steel base plates and come with a selection of rubber bumpers for the bases. All for $35ea

Wilson Combat and Chip McCormick Power for me.

Chip McCormick vote.. at Brownells

I have some Wilson, McCormick and no-name mags, as well as the McCormick conversion kits for a standard mag. I guess my guns aren't all that picky, because they all work well.

Chip McCormick for me too. I bought a bunch from a nice guy here on the equipment exchange and they are great. I mostly only use the extended 10 rnd mags.

Wilson Combat ETM 500.
The absolute best 1911 mags on the planet followed closely by the Chip McCormick CMC Mags and the Wilson Combat 47D.

Brownells sometimes has a sale on 3 or 4 packs of the the ETM 500's.

Tripp Research for 7 rds, Wilson for 8 & 10 rds

I have two 8-rounders from ACT-MAG (Italy) which do not work reliably when fully loaded. They work fine loaded to 7.

Tripp Research for 7 rds, Wilson for 8 & 10 rds

Another vote for Tripp Research. Also have great customer service and you can order direct.

I have some cheap no-name mags that work just fine the SR1911, but they aren't as easy to load.

 

[TriggerTime]

Kimber mags were what my LGS had so I tried them. They work pretty slick.

Also obtained some E-landers from Chemist. Excellent results

I have Wilson combats for my Springfield and they work great. I got them from Brownell's because I had no luck finding them in Canada.

 

[S.Gervais]

How far out do the 10 round mags extend from the bottom of the gun?

 

[ampegor]

Wilson or McCormick

 

[Armored Metal]

I use Wilson combat and Mec-Gar magazines in my Springfield with zero issues.

 

[crackerbarrel2]

I use Wilson 47-d's and they are the best I have found yet..

How far out do the 10 round mags extend from the bottom of the gun?

Google is your friend

Not my pic... but I sure did wish it was.

+1 Chip are all I run. Best out there, I compete with these. Dlask/ACT mags get cracked feed lips at the rear. Wilson ETMs are too tight in the gun loaded with 8 rounds.
