Frequently Asked Questions

Will this magazine work with my 1911?

Yes, if your 1911 is chambered in .45 ACP and is either a Government or Commander model. This is a standard 1911 magazine, so it's compatible with Auto-Ordnance 1911s and most other .45 ACP 1911s on the market.

What's the difference between Government and Commander capacity?

Both Government and Commander 1911s use 7-round .45 ACP magazines. The difference between the models is barrel and slide length, not magazine capacity. This magazine works with both.

Is steel or polymer better for 1911 magazines?

Steel magazines like this one are proven performers in the 1911 world. They hold tension reliably over years of use, don't warp, and are easy to maintain. They're the standard choice for serious 1911 shooters.
