1911 .45 ACP
The Magazine Trusted by Professionals for 50 Years
This is the 1911 magazine we build for military contracts and firearms manufacturers. Same specs. Same materials. Same quality control. Now available directly to you.
What makes it different? Three things.
First: It feeds everything. Round-nose hardball. Hollow-points. Semi-wadcutters. Our hybrid feed lip design accommodates all bullet profiles reliably. No more buying specific magazines for specific ammo.
Second: It's built to last decades. Through-hardened stainless steel or high-carbon steel construction. Not just surface treatment - the entire tube is hardened for strength. Drop it on concrete. Get it wet. Keep shooting.
Third: The follower actually works. Our patented dimpled follower prevents over-insertion and reduces malfunctions. The anti-tilt design keeps rounds feeding straight, even under rapid fire.
Available in 7-round (flush-fit), 8-round and 10rd (extended) capacity. Stainless or blued finish. Both built to the same exacting standards.
Made in our New York or Georgia facility. Backed by a lifetime warranty.

Get Help →How do I know which capacity I need?
If you're not sure, start by determining which frame size your 1911 is. In most cases, a quick Google search will tell you - but always feel free to contact us for help.
Can I leave these loaded long term?
Yes. Our springs are designed for extended compression. What wears springs is repeated loading/unloading cycles, not staying compressed.
Will this work with hollow-point ammunition?
Absolutely. Our hybrid feed lips are designed to work with round-nose FMJ, hollow points, semi-wadcutters, and flat-point bullets. Load what you trust.
What's the break-in process?
Load to full capacity and let sit for 24-48 hours. Then load and unload several times. Most magazines work perfectly out of the box, but this can help speed things up.
How do I maintain these magazines?
Disassemble monthly if carried daily, quarterly for range use. Wipe down the body, clean the follower, inspect the spring. Apply light oil to the spring (not the follower). That's all there is to it.
When should I replace the spring?
When you notice the slide not locking back consistently or feeding becomes less reliable. With normal use, our springs last many years. High-volume shooters should inspect annually.
What's covered by the warranty?
Manufacturing defects for life. If the magazine fails due to material or workmanship issues, we replace it. Normal wear items (springs, followers worn) aren't covered, but we sell replacement parts affordably.
