CM Products Shooting Star 1911 Government/Commander 45 ACP 8-Round Steel Magazine with Base Pad
Chip McCormick Custom
The CM Products Shooting Star 1911 Govt/Commander 38 Super 10-round stainless steel magazine is built for shooters who demand reliability in less-than-ideal conditions. Whether you're running competition stages, training hard at the range, or just running your 1911 hard without obsessing over constant cleaning, this magazine delivers consistent feeding with the kind of durability that only an all-steel design can provide. The stainless steel construction and included base pad give you both longevity and a professional look in the gun.
What sets the Shooting Star apart is its engineered follower—an all-steel piece designed to minimize bearing surface and keep things running smooth even when dirt and debris are present. That thoughtful geometry also lets the magazine run one of the largest, highest-tensile rocket wire springs available in a 38 Super 1911 platform, giving you the spring strength you need without sacrificing capacity or function.
The laser-welded tube and smooth finish mean the magazine seats and strips rounds without hassle, and the robust construction is built to survive serious use. For 1911 shooters feeding 38 Super, whether you're carrying Government or Commander-length models, this is a magazine that earns its place in your rotation.
