Wilson Combat 47 Series 1911 Govt/Commander 45 ACP 8-Rd Magazine with Aluminum Base Pad - Black

If you run a 1911 in .45 ACP—whether it's a Government or Commander model—you need magazines you can actually trust. The Wilson Combat 47 Series is purpose-built for shooters and professionals who demand reliability when it matters. With three decades of field use by elite operators, FBI SWAT, and precision shooters worldwide, Wilson Combat magazines have earned their reputation through real-world performance, not marketing.

The 47 Series 8-round magazine is engineered with .025" stainless steel tube walls—significantly thicker than standard offerings—which translates to magazines that feed flawlessly, survive hard carry and extended storage without losing integrity, and outlast the pistol they're loaded into. The aluminum base pad provides a solid, positive seating while keeping weight minimal. Whether you're running drills at the range, carrying for duty, or depending on your 1911 for serious work, Wilson Combat magazines remain fully loaded and functional for months or years without spring degradation or feed failures.

This is not commodity magazine stock. Wilson Combat's obsession with feeding reliability and material durability means tighter tolerances, proven manufacturing, and consistency that separates working guns from guns that work when you need them. Black finish resists corrosion and matches most 1911 platforms.
