The Wilson Combat 47 Series 1911 Government/Commander 45 ACP 8-round magazine is built for shooters who trust their sidearm in demanding situations. Whether you're running a full-size Government or more compact Commander-frame 1911, this magazine delivers the reliability Wilson Combat has refined over three decades. The 47 Series pairs proven engineering with a low-profile steel base pad that plays nice with holsters and concealment rigs while maintaining full capacity.
Wilson Combat magazines are working tools in the hands of professional shooters, military end-users, and dedicated handgun competitors. They're designed to handle sustained use, repeated reloads, and long-term storage without the failures that trip up lesser magazine designs. Thicker .025" stainless steel tube walls mean less flex under load, which translates directly to consistent feeding and zero feed-related malfunctions in your 1911.
If you're building a duty rig, a match gun, or just want spares you can trust, Wilson Combat magazines have earned their reputation the hard way—in the field and on the line. This 8-round version feeds the full capacity of a Government or Commander 45 ACP, and the low-profile base pad won't snag when you need speed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this magazine work in my 1911 Government and Commander pistols?
Yes, the Wilson Combat 47 Series is designed for both 1911 Government and Commander frame models chambered in 45 ACP.
What makes Wilson Combat magazines different from standard 1911 magazines?
Wilson Combat magazines use thicker .025" stainless steel tube walls that resist flex and deformation, which supports reliable feeding under sustained use and long-term storage. This is why they're trusted by professional shooters and military units.
Why does the low-profile base pad matter for a carry gun?
A low-profile base pad sits closer to the magazine well and doesn't protrude as far, making it easier to holster smoothly and less likely to catch on clothing or gear during draw or reholster.
How many rounds does an 8-round magazine hold in 45 ACP?
This magazine holds 8 rounds of 45 ACP ammunition, which is full capacity for this configuration.
