Magnum Research 1911 Magazine .45 ACP 6-Round Black Steel

The Magnum Research MAG1911456 magazine delivers reliable feeding and consistent performance for .45 ACP 1911 pistols. This 6-round magazine features robust steel construction with a black finish that resists corrosion while maintaining the classic 1911 aesthetic.

What Makes This Different

Unlike polymer alternatives, this steel magazine body provides superior durability under repeated loading cycles. The precision-engineered follower and spring system ensures smooth cartridge presentation to the chamber. Heat-treated steel construction withstands the pressures of high-volume shooting sessions that can deform lesser magazines.

Key Features

This magazine performs consistently across temperature ranges from -20°F to 140°F, making it suitable for competitive shooting, duty carry, and home defense applications. The steel construction maintains dimensional stability under the stress of fully loaded carry, while the follower geometry accommodates various .45 ACP bullet profiles including FMJ, JHP, and lead round nose configurations.
