I have an STI Edge with the standard STI magwell. Does anyone know of anyone who makes magwells out there that are a little smaller and more concealable? Links? Names??

I know, I know, its an STI thats meant to have the big magwell. :biglaugh:

The Krebs Custom is one of, if not the smallest available.

I'm going to try the anodized aluminum magwell from Krebs. This is my first STI so without having the newly ordered magwell to compare the standard one with, do I need a different mainspring housing or should it fit the standard?

Why not just go without a magwell if concealment is what you want?

 

[Bluecard]

Thought about that too. I will need a standard length main spring pin wouldn't I?

Ive gotta give it to Bob! That reply makes the most sense.

The standard mainspring housing pin on a 2011 is a little longer than a stock 1911 pin. The stock 1911 pin should work it just won't be flush.

Doesn't the STI Eagle come without a magwell? What length pin is used with that model?

 

[Brazos Custom Gunworks]

That would be the stock 2011 pin that I referred to.

Now Bob, you're confusing me with this 1911 vs. 2011 talk! This is my first STI so I'm kind of on the short bus still! :biglaugh: Would you have a standard 2011 pin at your fine facility?

 

[Brazos Custom Gunworks]

Yes, we have some.

Kudos to Kreb's Custom! I received my magwell yesterday. It's a lot smaller but still effective. Great customer service from those guys, I'm impressed.

Which magwell with you get? Any "after" pictures?

I bought the black aluminum magwell they offer for the STI. I'll try to snap a pic tonight. (I'm kinda at work right now )
