Which is the best and most reliable 8 round 1911 mag?

 

[fightin14]

I like my Metalform elite 8's. I also like my Wilson's

Checkmate 8-rounders work just fine for me and are reasonably priced:

The one that works in YOUR gun! Seriously.... not all mags work in different guns and I feel you have to match them to specific guns. After you shoot them of course.

i love 7 round USGI mags with strong mag springs and dimple followers....
also 8rd Wilson 47Ds.

A guy was at the range a couple months ago with a brand spanking new SA loaded. He bought 2 Wolff 8 rounders and discovered they didn't work in his gun. I have a SA range officer and they worked flawless. Go figure.

Yes, You have to find the 8-rounders that work in your gun. As for 7-rounders, it's much easier to find a match. The 8's are pushing the envelope a bit.

Wilson mags have always worked well for me.

I like Wilson's but as said above I'd see what works in your gun.

Whatever works in your gun.

1911's are like women. No two are the same and when you think you have them figured out, they change. :scratch:

Chip Mccormicks have done me very well
