Will GSG 1911-22 mags work in a Chiappa 1911-22?

[shredder]

I have the Chiappa 1911-22 and it's a really fun gun. I love the fact it shoots cheap .22 ammo, and that it feels and handles like a 1911 in 45ACP.

It has only one issue - of the two magazines that came with the pistol, one sucks bad-!!! It's a real PITA to get the rounds to feed properly out of it - the other magazine works just fine.

So, my question: does anyone know/has anyone tried to see if the GSG 1911-22 magazines fit and work in the Chiappa?

Anyone?

Buy one and try it. They're only $25-$30. If it don't work sell it on the ee

If you have a real 1911 mag, try it in the Chiappa. GSG mags are made to fit 1911's as they sell a conversion kit as well.

Buy the colt type mag...sell the Chiappa..

To answer the OP, yes they will fit. They will also fit the Sig version. Curiously enough they also fit my standard government 1911's.

Can't answer the GSG 1911 .22lr mag working in a Chiappa 1911 .22lr question..... but I did find that a GSG 1911 .22lr mag works fine with a real deal Colt .22 conversion unit.

Which is great considering GSG mags are plentiful & relatively cheap compared to the scarce & expensive when found Colt .22lr mags.

As was suggested, I'd just buy a GSG mag & try it. Would be interested to see if it works.

They also work(better) in the Kimber .22 conversion kit.

That was one I also wondered about - whether the GSG 1911 .22lr mags would work with a Kimber .22 conversion unit.

Now I know.
