Iver Johnson 1911 28rd 45 ACP Drum Magazine Black Metal Polymer

The Iver Johnson IJ1911DRUM45 transforms standard 1911 platforms into high-capacity powerhouses with its 28-round drum magazine design. This extended capacity magazine eliminates frequent reloads during extended shooting sessions and competitive events. Built from durable black metal construction with a polymer floor plate, it delivers reliable feeding performance across multiple shooting disciplines.

What Makes This Different

While standard 1911 magazines typically hold 7-8 rounds, this drum magazine quadruples capacity to 28 rounds of 45 ACP ammunition. The metal body construction provides superior durability compared to all-polymer alternatives, while the polymer floor plate reduces overall weight. This combination delivers the feeding reliability that 1911 platforms demand while extending shooting time between reloads.

Key Features

• 28-round capacity for 45 ACP ammunition - 3.5x more than standard magazines
• Black metal body construction with polymer floor plate for durability and weight reduction
• Compatible with standard 1911 pistol platforms and magazine wells
• Drum design distributes cartridge weight evenly for balanced handling
• Spring-loaded follower system ensures consistent ammunition feeding

Competitive shooters benefit from extended strings of fire without interruption, while range enthusiasts can focus on marksmanship fundamentals rather than constant reloading.

Law enforcement and security professionals gain tactical advantages in situations requiring sustained fire capability.
