Wilson Combat 47D 1911 .45 ACP 8-Round Full-Size Magazine with Standard Base, Stainless, 47D
The Wilson Combat 47D is the most widely referenced benchmark for 1911 .45 ACP magazine reliability. The stainless steel body resists corrosion and the self-limiting polymer follower prevents over-travel that causes feeding failures in lesser magazines. The wide-mouth design promotes consistent bullet nose presentation to the feed ramp.
The 47D is fit-tested against a government-profile frame; it works in any properly fitted 1911 Government frame. Wilson Combat has manufactured this magazine for decades and it remains the standard recommendation from 1911 gunsmiths and armorer courses as the baseline for reliable function testing.
