I like the feel of the 1911, and I would like to get one in 9mm, but I want 10 round magazines instead of the 9 round ones that I have seen. Does anyone know if these magaiznes are made, if so by who? Thanks in advance.
 
yes chip mcormick makes 10 round mags and retrofit kits for the 9 rounders to convert them to 10 rounders basically thru a thinner mag follower to fit the extra round.
 
I assume that the 38 super magazines will also take the 9mm? I do not know the 38 super round well enough to determine myself, but the mags I saw there were for the 38 super.

Thanks for the help Westicle; if this is the case, I may be looking at a Trojan in the future.
 
.38 Super is obviosly longer than 9 MM, and HAS ALMOST NO TAPER. The magazine followers may be subtly different, and so some of the .38 Super mags may have some feeding issues if used with 9 MM.

9 MM mags usually have a filler plate inside at the rear, to keep the shorter 9 MM rounds from sliding back and forth inside the mag. If the slide stop contacts the bullets as they feed up ...
this is NOT a good thing.

Under recoil, the shorter 9 MM ammo may slide too far forward and with some bullet shapes, may pop the slide stop up into the slide in locked back position.

As Usual,
Your Mileage May Vary

So, from what Lazerus2000 is saying, it MAY work, but most likely not well. Am I correct in saying that?

If that is the case, is there anyone that makes a 10 round magazine specifically for the 9mm Luger? We shoot 10 round magazines at the range and I will be putting myself at a disadvantage at certain points.

All I have ever run across for the single stack 1911 9mm's are 9 rounders be they : MecGar, Pachmayr, MetalForm, Colt Factory, or Norinco. Bummer !!
