Limited Edition "Alien Green" 30 Round AK-47 MagazineGET YOURS
While the 1911 pistol is renowned for its exceptional ergonomics and precision, standard 1911 magazines only hold seven or eight rounds of ammunition. Many 1911 shooters opt to carry a reload for this very reason and in 2024, there are several excellent aftermarket magazines to choose from.
A quality handgun magazine must, at minimum, feed reliably and drop free when the magazine release is depressed. Many modern 1911 mags also increase the pistol's base capacity by at least one round,. Whether you're looking to upgrade your primary magazine or browsing for a few spares for EDC or range use, we've got something here for you.
For those looking to spend more time shooting and less time reloading, these standard Government model 8-round mags are as functional as they are affordable. These magazines fit virtually all 1911 pistols, come in blued or stainless, and are perfect for extended range sessions or training courses.
Mec-Gar has a long track record of manufacturing quality aftermarket magazines, including this 7-round nickel magazine for compact 1911 Officer's variants. Featuring round count witness holes and a removable base pad, Mec-Gar magazines are optimized for duty use and concealed carry.
If you carry a full-size 1911 pistol, the Ed Brown OEM 1911 8-round magazine is the perfect upgrade for your EDC. This magazine utilizes a heavy duty spring and steel follower, as well as an ultra-rugged base pad - providing a difference you can feel when you seat the mag and chamber a round.
The Railed Power Mag from Chip McCormick Customs is one of the most reliable extended-capacity 1911 magazines on the market. Designed by and for competitive shooters, it features dual-wall feed rails and a laser-welded stainless steel tube for enhanced performance and flawless functionality.
Widely considered the gold standard by 1911 aficionados, the Wilson Combat 1911 Elite Tactical magazine has an extended wraparound base plate with a 10-round capacity. This mag is built tough yet feels incredibly smooth, offering increased firepower and improved reliability when you need it most.
