9 MM 1911 Magazines

[wcd]

Looking for Suggestions As I am looking add a few as I Only have Two. Have tried Mcgar magazines in the past and it was nothing but a problem feed issues etc. So far the two that I have are Chip Mccormick magazines , just wondering if they are still the best bang for your buck?

Thanks

When I had a 9mm 1911, I always had the best luck with Cobra Tripp magazines. I recommend them.

It's a 1911 that takes Glock 17 mags. Solved your problem for you.

I have really good luck with the Kimber Kim pro mags

That solves a non existent problem? Since I do not own a single !*$”! Magazine. Besides its not really a 1911 more that a 2011 is.

No feeding issues or slide lock back?

Thanks sounds like a small thing but I like the idea that they are available in Black, since all of my magazines get stored in a box in a locker when not in use.

Fan of Metalform Mags here for 1911s regardless of caliber. I have several of their 9mm mags and not a lick of trouble.

Most of my 1911 mags are either GI or factory Colt.

I've had no problems with colt, metal form, Wilson combat, or some ancient gi mags.
That's in .45acp, 9mm, and 10mm.

Just stay away from promag, those are the only ones I have had trouble with, they don't even fit my Std. Mfg. Never had any trouble with any others (kimber, mecgar, etc.).

That's the worst way to say get a Staccato I have ever seen, keep the poors and their filthy Glock brand Glock magazines away from John Moses Browning's utter genius.

To OP's actual question, Wilson Combat is always the answer for 1911 magazines. Never had any issues , though only have their .45acp magazines myself.

Wilson Combat. I have around a dozen of the 10 rounders. Flawless and they get used in competition. Recently have purchased a few of their 9 round flush fit magazines and have been just as reliable.

I pretty much exclusively use Wilson Combat mags in my 9mm 1911 (the exception is the 2 factory mags). They have never given me an issue so no reason to change. I do use McCormick mags in my 45ACP guns though, again never an issue so I stay with what works.

I was having some magazine issues with the factory Springfield Magazines with a new 9mm Range Officer model. I am pretty sure the ones they replaced the defective ones with were Metal form brand.

I just looked and every magazine I have for that pistol are Metal Form branded. They have a spacer in the back to keep the rounds pushed forward. I don't know if that is the secret, but they all work flawlessly.
