Chip Mccormick Custom Power Magazine, 8-Round, Black
The Chip McCormick Custom Power Magazine in 8-round capacity is engineered for shooters who demand absolute reliability in competition, training, or self-defense scenarios. Built with manufacturing techniques and materials that set it apart from standard magazine production, this magazine combines durability with proven feeding performance across a wide range of ammunition types.
What makes this magazine stand out is the attention to feed reliability. The feed lips are roll-formed and polished rather than die-cut, a process that adds measurable strength to the critical contact surfaces that guide rounds into the chamber. Paired with Chip McCormick's proprietary follower design, the magazine feeds semi-wadcutters and hollow points without the hiccups that plague lesser magazines. The spring is where real engineering shows: a heat-treated Rocket Wire spring that maintains tension even after extended periods of full loading, so the magazine performs just as reliably on day one as it does after months in a duty holster.
The 8-round capacity comes with a slightly extended base pad that adds about a quarter-inch to overall length, giving you a bit more purchase and a more controllable reload. The removable base pad is reinforced with full front-to-back engagement, designed to take the beating that comes with competitive shooting, training drills, or daily carry use. Both sides of the magazine body feature numbered witness holes—a simple but genuinely useful feature that lets you count rounds at a glance without unloading.
This is a magazine built for people who trust their gear with their lives. Whether you're running a precision pistol platform at the range, training for a match, or carrying for protection, the Chip McCormick Power Magazine delivers the kind of no-compromise reliability that justifies the investment.
