Best 1911 magazine??

[Sean Smith]

Tripp Cobramags.

This just goes to show how no 2 1911s are really alike. In my guns they were some of the worst magazines I'd ever seen, but lots of people have great luck with them in their guns.

What were the problems you were having?

I can't speak to the 8 rounders, but I have Ed Brown and Checkmate 7 rounders side-by-side and they are clearly NOT the same magazine. The Ed Brown magazine body is made of heavier steel than the Checkmate, has slightly different feed lips and a coated follower instead of bare steel. If Checkmate makes them for Ed Brown then they're using different specs for Ed Brown than the ones sold under the Checkmate name.

For what it's worth Ed Browns standard 7 round magazine used to be just a re-branded Metalform with a rounded metal follower.

This looks like there 7rd mag.

And this the 8rd mag.

I might be wrong tho.

i have had great luck with taurus mags. my kimber tac-pro won't feed for ****, it looks nice in stainless but it can't feed any type of ball or JHP ammo at all.

my CMC power mag is awesome. i do need to get some more mags now that i think about it

Advertisement copy: “Featuring Wilson’s strongest magazine body to date, the Elite Tactical magazine was built from the ground up to be an ultra-reliable magazine. Additional features are an improved follower design with an extended skirt, special stainless steel spring that will not take a set and a near indestructible base pad.”

I believe this speaks volumes about Wilson’s previous design.

I’d recommend CMC Power Mags™ or Metalform.
