Wilson Combat 47 Series 1911 Government/Commander .40 S&W 9-Round Stainless Steel Magazine with Base Pad

The Wilson Combat 47 Series 1911 Government/Commander .40 S&W 9-round magazine is built for shooters who demand reliability from every round they load. Whether you carry a full-size Government or the more compact Commander frame, this stainless steel magazine is engineered to feed consistently and perform when it matters. Wilson Combat designed the 47 Series specifically around .40 S&W 1911 pistols, combining their decades of gunsmith expertise with the no-compromise construction you'd expect from a family-owned manufacturer.

Built from aircraft-grade certified stainless steel with .025" tube walls, this magazine resists corrosion and shrugs off the wear that comes with regular use and storage. The tube is heat-treated for durability, and the all-metal follower features Wilson's patented extended skirt to prevent tilt and keep rounds feeding reliably into the chamber. A heavy-duty spring and metal spacer ensure proper feeding with factory .40 S&W ammunition and positive slide stop operation when the mag runs dry.

Versatility is built in: the removable .350" plastic base pad comes off easily for maintenance or swapping in different pad options to suit your preferences. The magazine handles extended storage without issue, and Wilson Combat backs it with a no-risk service policy — if it breaks from normal use, they'll replace it. That's confidence in the product.

For 1911 shooters who run .40 S&W and refuse to compromise on feed reliability or durability, the Wilson Combat 47 Series delivers the performance you'll actually notice on the range or in duty rotation.
