best clips for a colt commander

[Carl_Winslow]

Hi,
I am new here and want to know what kind of clips would be the best for my new colt commander. I want to just stick with the regular 7 bullet clips.
any suggestions?

Magazines.. not clips

...

Wilson combat mags. They work.

Since you are not talking about an M1 Garand, you are looking for magazines, not clips.

With that said....Wilson Combat mags are great. I also have no problems with my Novak, ACT MAG, and also my Chip McCormick mags.

I heard there was a way to make this gun full-auto (my uncle said all you have to do is file the.. sear?). should I buy magazines that hold more bullets if this is what I want to try?

If you are successful at making your Commander full auto you will also be successful at getting yourself some prison time as that would be a Federal felony. You cannot convert anything to full auto legally in the US as a private individual.

BS post.

New guy starts the thread by calling magazines "clips."

His second post talks about filing the sear to make it "full auto."

I hope none of you truly think this guy is anything but a baiter. Sheesh!

Thank you!

Quick additional question. On the Cheaper than dirt site, the Chip Mc. magazines seem to be the cheapest offering. Is this a quality issue? they have good reviews but I do not mind dropping a little bit extra dollars for magazines that will last. Thanks!

By the way: I am not baiting. Honestly, I know a bit more than I let on, I just get a kick out of getting a rise out of people (in fun of course) I hope I did not offend anyone. Frankly it worked, my question was answered pretty quickly an I hope you guys got a laugh from that second post. I really am looking to get some new mags for my commander, its a beautiful pistol and as soon as I get out of police academy (in may) it will be my off-duty carry gun. +1 for not flaming the hell out of me.

New Guinness World Record Set On THR!

From AP
The Guinness Organization announced today that Carl_Winslow has just been confirmed as the holder of a new World Record for getting on more THR IGNORE LISTS in a shorter period of time than any previous attempts.
Mr. Winslow managed this feat in only 4 postings - a remarkable feat indeed.

... I just get a kick out of getting a rise out of people ...

Yah. It's called "trolling."

However, in answer to the actual question - which is a good one - these magazines from Mec-Gar work well in my 1990s stainless Combat Commander. In fact, they seem to be the only ones that run consistently in that gun. My SIG-Sauer GSR, on the other hand, likes Wilson 47Ds the best. (Its factory magazines - of unknown make since I cannot find a maker's logo -are very poor, frequently nose-diving the top round on a slide-lock reload.) I purchased and swapped in thinner floorplates, my preference for carry.

Normally, we greet new people here, but its to hard in your case. Do you plan on being an A-hole when you get your badge? While I generally support Peace Officers, you may be the type that gives LEOs a bad name... by trolling for felonious advice on the web, you give gunowners a bad name as well.

Putting "Bullets" in your magazines will serve no purpose whatsoever. You must also include the cartridge case, powder and primer, properly assembled as a unit.
