Wilson Combat 47 Series 1911 Government/Commander 45 ACP 8-Round Stainless Steel Magazine with Extended Base Pad

The Wilson Combat 47 Series 1911 Government/Commander 45 ACP 8-Round Stainless Steel Magazine with Extended Base Pad is purpose-built for shooters who demand absolute reliability from their 1911. Wilson Combat has spent three decades refining 1911 magazine design, earning the trust of elite military units, federal law enforcement, and professional shooters who stake their lives on gear that works. This stainless steel magazine is engineered to feed flawlessly in both Government and Commander-length 1911s in 45 ACP, giving you one less variable to worry about when it matters.

What separates a quality 1911 magazine from a mediocre one is attention to detail and materials. The 47 Series features .025" tube walls—thicker than many competitors—in stainless steel construction that resists corrosion and holds its shape through years of use and loading cycles. The extended base pad gives you a confident purchase on the magazine for faster reloads and easier handling, while the design remains compatible with standard 1911 pouches and holsters. Whether you're building a reliable carry gun, setting up a range rig, or stocking spares for your duty weapon, a magazine you can trust isn't optional.

Load it and leave it loaded. Wilson Combat magazines are proven to hold their tension and feeding reliability even when fully loaded for extended periods—a trait you won't find in every option out there. Pair one with your 1911 and move forward with confidence.
