| What is the largest capacity magazine that I could buy for my Springfield Operator? The largest ive come across is 10. |
| Anything larger than 10 is completely impractical (look at widebody 1911 types or another firearm). If you are just curious or want something ridiculous as a toy, there are mags ending in a drum that accept 15 rds, 25 rds, and perhaps more (25 is the biggest i know of). |

Absolutely. The problem is that you either have a mag body that is absurdly long and a weak spring, causing feeding issues, or you have a mag with a drum (which is completely impractical to maneuver, carry as a spare etc), and most of those are of dubious quality as well. Stick with Wilson Combat 47Ts (my choice) or CMC Powermags for reloads if you want maximum "practical" capacity. |

+1 for the McCormick 10 rnd Powermag. Got a couple, love 'em. You can even carry with one in the gun--they don't stick out that far. I've seen 2 or 3 manufacturers in my Midway catalog showing 15 rnders, but I have no experience with them. They do look a bit long though, strictly range fun, if the work....... |
