9mm 1911 magazines

[deltaenterprizes]

Stay away from HGW mags on Ebay!
They are beautiful mags but I could only get 6 rounds in a 9 round mag!
I have not heard from their customer service department and it has been a couple of months!
I did get a full refund and they paid for the return shipping but I really wanted the mags to work!

Sent for 2 Tripp Research and 3 check mate magazines.

The only Wilson's I could find were $60.00 each and out of stock. I have 3 Wilson's for my .45 along with 1 Ed Brown, 2 Les Baer's, and one unknown. They all work

Thanks for the replies.

Received my Check Mate magazines today and went to the range. I loaded one magazine 5 times and it worked perfectly. Putting 5 to 6 rounds into the magazine was fairly easy but I am sure glad I had my UpLULA magazine loader with me. That spring is one strong mother.

Only used one in case my gun did not like the magazine and tomorrow will try the other two.

That STI is fine pistol. It is unlikely to miss a beat with any decently made magazine.

it was that tazman. that trojan was the most accurate 1911 ive owned. rack the slide it felt like it was running on ball bearings it was so smooth. Had a 952 smith before it and it didnt hold a candle to that trojan in any category. it was every bit the gun my les baer was for half the money. My buddy talked me out of it when i quit shooting comp and i cant even shame him into selling it back to me.

I am going to purchase some magazines for my 9mm 1911 and am looking at magazines from Check-mate and Chip McCormick.

Does it make any difference which company I purchase from. The Check-mate magazines are $3.00 less than the McCormick which would pay for the shipping. Maybe that should not be the deciding factor.

I have a Springer loaded. It was pretty picky with 10rd mags. I bought one of each manuf & the Tripp Cobra mags are what I ended up buying for competition. They always work. So before you go buy 3-4 each, buy one of either & try it extensively. BTW, my Springer didnt like the Wilson mags.

I have Tripp mags for my S&W pro series 9mm, work well, I have not had any issues with them.

My Rock runs just fine on MecGars. But, because it's set up to be able to switch calibers, I use MecGar 38 Super mags for 9mm and 38 Super, and I don't have any problems. I've even gotten 9mm to feed out of a MecGar 10mm mag.
