Springfield 1911 Magazines from the Coupon When you buy a gun??

[jcerillo70 16]

So if you ever bought a Springfield 1911, you know they give you the orange coupon that gives you dealer pricing one time only

 

Im looking for the 10 rounders,

 

They have 2 choices for 10 round magazines for the 1911

1) .45 10 Round Single-Stack, Stainless Steel (I wrote down for 5 in pen, i'm sure i can white it out)

 

2) .45 10 Round High Capacity Full Size

 

And they give you no description that would help you decifer the differences. Maybe one of you fine fellows had some experience with either of these, or know the difference

[Anselmo 87]

Looking at their webpage, one is stainless and one looks black.

[Regulator72 80]

Wouldn't you need Orange Out?

[jcerillo70 16]

There's a significant price between the 2. $19 for 10 rd. single stack & $27 for 10 rd. high cap.

 

I know SS cost more, but i think theres got to be more to it. When i google it there's no additional info or reviews on them

The SS = Single Stack not stainless steel and the other one is a double stack. It would all depend on what one fit your gun.

The high capacity may be double stack, but the stainless steel single stack are nice mags. I have a couple 7 round Stainless Steel which are excellent.

Magazines, especially with a 1911, is one place where you don't want to scrimp. Wilsons are highly thought of and that is what I use in both my Combat Elite and Sig RCS. Never had a malfunction caused by a mag - brain farts, yes, magazines, no.

+1 on the wilson mags.

[ronhonda 86]

Having had many different brands of 1911 mags, I strongly advise not to go "cheap" and get Wilson's.

After using the Wisons I sold all my other mags.

Their 8 and 10 rounders are hands down the best on the market. Plus they have a lifetime guarantee.

For 10 rounders I use/recommend the 47T

The 10 rounder was at one point (might still be) called the Bureaucrat.

Can someone clear something up for me on this...

 

I realize this should fit into my Colt 1911 govt.

 

What does the "BASE PAD" part mean? It just has some part that fits flush with the bottom?

 

I'm thinking of buying a couple.

the little black plastic piece at the bottom of the mag.

On the 10 rounder it is really small and not an issue.

On the 8 rounder, you have several options on basepads. I usually go for the extended model.

Check out the link and see the descriptions from Wilson on there basepads.

[Vlad G 345]

The base pad is that metal or plastic bit at the bottom of the mag. Besides keep the guts of the mag inside, and allowing the guts to come out for cleaning, it also serves different purposes on different mags.

 

For example on SOME 7/8rd mags it also acts as the stop to prevent over insertion, butting up against the front of the magwell (where it is a machined a bit higher). On a 10rd mag that is done either by having a "wrap around" mag base pad (like the CMC power mags do) or with a weld on bit of steel on the front of the mag like the Wilson picture above.

 

 

 

The the base pad assists with getting the mag into and out of the gun with a bit of speed, it allows you to push on it with the base of your palm to make sure the mag is sited. A slightly extended base pad is critical if you have any sort of magwell addon on your gun (like a lot of the factory guns do now) because otherwise you need to kinda stick your hand inside the magwell to get the mag sited, and extended mag base pad makes that easier.

Thanks,

 

I do know what a base pad is...I was just unclear as to what it means in this context.
