Additional ATC mags for Sam Commander tactical .45 ACP

I was told, that the ATC mags are to expensive! they don't have them, they fit better in my Commander tactical. i am always sad to order somewhere else ....:(
 
Thanks. What other 1911 magazines have you tried which works with the commander? Kind of odd about the fit since the Commander has the same frame size as a government model.

I was looking at the SS Wilson Combat from Brownell's but the shipping cost is not provided when I attempt to do a mock check out. I don't want to put my CC info and find out later on that the shipping charge will be way up there.
 
The ACT mag works great. Too bad we can't get more. The E-lander mag does not work well in my GI Tactical Commander - it doesn't chamber rounds reliably. I recommend the Wilson 47D's.

If any one is having any problems with a 1911 E-lander mag please e-mail me the details as we must be able to report back if corrections are required in the manufacturing or if it is just a QC problem.
 
My E-lander mag fits properly in the pistol and will drop free, it just seems to be finicky with chambering rounds and going into battery. I don't have a ton of experience with pistols to know what the problem is. I just know that my other magazines do not cause me any troubles. I haven't e-mailed you as I purchased the E-lander from another CGN sponsor.

I love the SAM though. Great deal from you guys!
 
I purchased 4 of the e-lander mags for my SAM Commander Tactical and had to some polishing on the feedlips due to some burring that cased the cases to drag and create jams. It also left scratches on the mags showing it was pretty severe. Once I did some minor deburring and polishing with a felt bob/polishing they worked flawlessly for the last 1000+ rounds I put through the 4 of them. I did have one hangup on the last round recently due to the follower sticking. I had not cleaned them since I purchased them about so they had some powder residue that might have caused that - I reload with longshot and find that it is a fairly dirty powder. I also polished the follower edges while i was at it just cause i was there.

The mags are a great deal for the price and didn't mind the polishing I had to do. It was easily done and wasn't worth the return and hope the next batch didn't have the same problem. If I had paid $50 bucks for Tripp Cobra's I'd be more irritated. Happy customer and would recommend it but with a heads up on the finishing work.
 
ACT are available....rebranded by a famous gun spring maker in the US and also a famous 1911 maker in Canada.
However, the Elander are very very similar design other then the baseplate and finish on the mag, and the follower/spring/baseplates will interchange between the 2 mags.
