IIRC the Vega was one of the first stainless steel 1911s made, about 20-25 years ago. I assume they were OE with one of those.
Has anyone come across this brand of magazine?
About 15 years ago or so I purchased 2 stainless steel .45ACP magazines
from a guy at a gun show. They have rounded followers and are stamped
on the floor plate with " VEGA 45 AUTO ". These have been great mags
for fit and function. Anyone know their origin?, Thanks.

They were in fact made by Vega for their 1911's which were not too good. I have 3 of the mags and they have worked well. Go figure :hrm:
Way back in 1979 (give or take a year) I purchased several Vega SS 1911 magazines at a gun show. All of them split along the seam at the rear corner of the mouth after very little range use. They never stayed loaded longer than it took me to send the rounds down range.
