Tailgate,
Thanks for the tips. A 1911 would probably be my last choice for home/carry use. I prefer my SIG-Sauer P229, Beretta 92 or HK P7 for that if indicated (and I have some factory mags for them). These are just fun shooting guns (don't get me wrong, I love the 1911 design, and the .45 has always been an excellent defense round, but I am more comfortable with the other guns due to more use.
I was kind of leaning towards just springing for Wilson mags anyway, but if someone has had excellent luck with another brand, I am willing to try them.
As to the Mil-Surp mags for the other guns, high quality contract mags are generally pretty good (hell, aren't the US made Beretta 92 mags "contract" mags anyway?).
Marksman, I will let you know when I find some mags. I have about 10 Hi-cap mags split between 2 guns, but can always use a few more (I am starting to look hard at the Elite or the new slimmer grip gun they are coming out with--if it takes standard mags--as a good finish to a Beretta 92 collection).
Thanks!!
