Wilson Combat 1911 Elite Tactical ETM 8-Round .45 ACP +P Magazine with Lo-Profile Steel Floor Plate - Black

The Wilson Combat 1911 Elite Tactical ETM 8-round .45 ACP +P magazine is built for shooters who demand reliability in a 1911 platform magazine. Whether you're running a Government Model for duty, competition, or self-defense, this magazine brings three decades of Wilson Combat's 1911 expertise into a single-stack design engineered to run hard in real-world conditions. The body is formed from extra-thick stainless steel with carefully radiused curves that minimize stress concentration—a deliberate design choice that virtually eliminates feed-lip cracking and premature fatigue.

Wilson Combat's proprietary welding, deburring, and polishing process creates an unusually strong seam that keeps the magazine running smooth and snag-free. The non-tilt polymer follower self-lubricates and fully supports the ammo stack, eliminating nose-dives and double feeds. Witness holes positioned toward the rear add structural integrity, and the magazine body places less tension on the spring than standard designs, so you'll get longer spring life and easier seating of a fully loaded mag even with the slide closed. The lo-profile polymer base pad is tough enough for wet-handed handling and strips off for field cleaning.

This magazine comes spec'd for .45 ACP +P loads, compatible with Government Model 1911 frames. Round-count numbers stamped 1 through 10 let you track usage across your magazine rotation and spot wear patterns. Available in Black Oxide finish, it's a no-frills, do-the-job choice for serious shooters.
