Wilson Combat 47C 1911 Stainless 7rd Magazine with Lo-Profile Steel Floor Plate for .45 ACP 1911 Government

The Wilson Combat 47C is a premium .45 ACP magazine purpose-built for 1911 Government-frame pistols that demand absolute reliability in the field or on the range. This 7-round stainless steel magazine represents three decades of Wilson Combat's commitment to magazine performance—trusted by elite military units, federal law enforcement, and professional shooters who can't afford feed failures or durability compromises.

Wilson Combat manufactures these magazines from .027" aircraft-grade 17-7 PH stainless steel (the thickest tube walls in the industry) and heat-treats them for maximum service life under sustained use. The heavy-duty spring is fabricated from maximum tensile strength wire to ensure positive slide stop operation and reliable feeding over thousands of rounds. A fiber-filled nylon self-lubricating follower keeps rounds feeding smoothly through extended shooting sessions, and the magazine will hold a full load indefinitely without spring degradation or damage—a critical advantage for stored duty mags or competition gear.

The low-profile steel floor plate gives you a clean, professional profile that works with standard 1911 holsters and mag carriers. It's removable for easy cleaning and maintenance, and the design is compatible with alternative base pad options if you want to swap them later. Dimensional tolerances are held so tight that you'll get drop-free performance from your 1911 every single time, as long as your pistol and ammunition are within spec.

Whether you're running a carry gun, match pistol, or range workhorse, Wilson Combat magazines set the standard. The 47C delivers the reliability and durability that professionals have relied on for thirty years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this magazine work with my 1911?

The 47C is designed for 1911 pistols with a Government-size frame. As long as your 1911 is a standard Government model and both the pistol and ammunition are within spec, you'll get drop-free performance and reliable feeding.

Can I swap the floor plate or base pad?

Yes. The low-profile steel floor plate is removable, and the .350" plastic base pad is also removable, so you can customize the magazine with different base pad options if needed for specific holsters or carry setups.

How long will this magazine last?

Wilson Combat's magazines are designed to perform indefinitely. The heat-treated stainless steel construction and heavy-duty spring wire are engineered for maximum service life. The magazine can remain fully loaded for extended periods without spring fatigue or damage—a key advantage over inferior alternatives.

What's the difference between this and a standard .45 magazine?

Wilson Combat uses .027" aircraft-grade stainless steel tube walls (thickest in the industry), maximum tensile strength spring wire, and precise dimensional tolerances. The combination delivers superior reliability, durability, and the ability to maintain performance under sustained use—which is why these magazines are trusted by elite military units and professional shooters worldwide.
