Has anyone here tried them? With the 1911 Loaded Coupon they come out to just $19 for the stainless ones. Thinking of using them as range mags for both my TRP and Colt Rail Gun.

when i bought my range officer(2nd hand)the seller included one but i've never used it.
that wasn't very helpful was it?
i don't think the guy would have sent the mag if there were any issues w/it.

if i get a chance and i remember i'll take it w/me to the range today if i get to go.

Thanks. Hopefully it's good to go. It's a pretty good price for a 10-rd single stack 1911 mag.

in addition to finding and shooting it w/o issue my son blew up my g29 along w/his hand so i only got 10 shots but it ran w/o hesitation.
the follower, however looked different than any other SA mag. it had a plastic(delrin?)follower that wasn't flat; it was humped in the middle, front to back and had an ed brown bumper pad. maybe it was an ed brown?

great for range use but i can see the inch or so base catching on everything!

SA will make it right if they don't work

I use the CMC power mags can find them for as low as $23 never had a issue with any CMC mag out of my TRP. Let me know how the factories work out at 19, follower sounds wierd but who knows.

The follower sounds like the old Pachmyr metal follower .

I think Brownell's list them in the catalog.

Good Luck

I just received the mags I ordered. They're Metalform mags, very much unlike what was on their website. Should I keep them or send them back?

Metalform makes some great 1911 magazines.
