Wilson Combat Magazines

[Cap]

i'm not familiar with their "combat 500" mags, Lane

Just 47d and EMT

The last three 47d's I bought came from Cabela's last summer
It was a three pack deal for $79 or $89 (?) if i recall

Maybe it's still going on


..L.T.A.

Sorry - 500 or 500b for the black version - is the same as the ETM.

Interesting but I will stick with stainless. All my 1911s are SS except the Springer Loaded (parked)

What's the follower in this version? I have a few 47D's, they work fine in my Eclipse, but CBOB doesn't like them so much. I should say the slide lock doesn't like the plastic followers, they don't hook up well and it's a pain pullin a mag with a slidelock wedgy...

Huh. I've got 47D followers(#19 follower kits) in all my CMC Match-Grades, they feed and operate flawlessly in all six of my 1911s, including the one 'whose name shall not be mentioned'.

maybe it's the tubes?

I'm considering picking up a couple of spare mags for my Nighthawk Bob Marvel Custom. The BMC came with two mags, one a blued 8-round made by ACT. It seems fine. The other is a stainless 8-round that does not indicate a manufacturer. It doesn't want to seat when loaded with eight rounds.

It seems like Wilson mags have a 90+ percent approval rating. Most users rave about them and many won't buy anything else. I was hoping that someone could explain the differences between the assortment of models that Wilson offers. The 47D seems to be very popular but there's also the 800 in addition to the 500. And then there are various iterations of all three main models. What makes a mag suitable for +P ammo like the 500A-HD? Is it "better" than a standard 500? What about the 800 series Vickers mags? The price differences aren't all that great from one model to the next. It's not like I'm buying ten - just one or two. So a $10-$15 difference doesn't concern me that much.

Does anyone know if Nighthawks are finicky with regard to Wilson mags in general?

What's is the picture shows the black mag, but the description is stainless. The stainless are fine, I'd just like a black one form my .

I didn't think to check with him - I bought my Dillon reloading setup from BrianEnos and have been very pleased with their customer support.

Thanks for the pointer!
