The Chip McCormick Custom Match Grade 1911 Government/Commander 45 ACP 8-round stainless steel magazine brings precision engineering to one of the most critical components of your pistol. Built to tolerances tighter than standard military specs, this is the magazine serious competitors, defensive shooters, and 1911 enthusiasts choose when reliability and consistency matter. Whether you're running a classic Government frame or the more compact Commander, this USGI-style fixed base magazine delivers the performance you'd expect from a purpose-built match-grade product.
What sets the Match Grade apart is obsessive attention to the details that make magazines work. The follower design and feed lip geometry have been refined beyond typical military specifications, paired with aerospace-grade rocket-wire springs that maintain tension shot after shot. The laser-welded base plate eliminates the weak point that causes so many standard magazines to fail—this one is built for the long haul. Large numbered viewing holes let you track your round count at a glance without fumbling, and the smooth finish ensures your mag seats and strips quickly when you need it.
Die-controlled tolerances held to ±.001 inch—more than 75% tighter than USGI standards—mean each magazine performs like its siblings. That consistency matters on the range, in competition, and in any situation where your pistol has to work. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and abuse, and the fixed base design is compatible with standard 1911 platforms that accept Government or Commander-pattern mags.

Chip McCormick Custom holds Match Grade magazines to tolerances of ±.001 inch—more than 75% tighter than typical military specifications. This precision extends to the follower design, feed lip geometry, and spring performance. The laser-welded base plate, aerospace-grade rocket-wire spring, and optimized internal geometry ensure consistency and durability that standard magazines don't offer.
The magazine features large numbered viewing holes on the side that let you quickly count your rounds at a glance without unloading the magazine or breaking down the feed stack.
No. The Match Grade magazine features a laser-welded base plate for maximum durability and strength, which means it is not removable like traditional pin-style base plates.
