7-Round 1911 Mag
SARCO HAS GONE TO EXTENSIVE LENGTHS TO DEVELOP A SUPERIOR 1911 .45 MAGAZINE
WE HAVE SOLD PROBABLY 150,000 OF OUR PRICE BUSTERS, BUT WE DECIDED WE NEED A NEW & BETTER 1911 MAG & WE ARE VERY PLEASED WITH OUR NEW PROGRAM.
Please check the quality features of our new 1911 mag:
• Produced on a computer controlled high speed link press. This provides a stable platform for progressive dies & uniformity. Body tooling has 6 stages & follower tooling has 16 stages. This assures an accurate & repeatable process with less metal stress, when fewer, less radical bends are made.
• Latest technology parallel feed lip design for proper timed release of cartridge. Special for semi wad cutters, although per technical feed back semi wad cutters may require additional timing.
• Welding is done on a Yasakawa computer controlled robotic arm argon welder. Unlike some .45 mags you can’t see the seam weld on the back.
• In house quality control gages to national standard are used for checking every stage of the production.
• QC inspection involves a 2/5D video measuring machine enabling checking of every specification & keeps the record in memory.
• Springs are tested to 20,000 cycles
• Dimple designed as a mag catch override for easier mag insertion.
• Latest rounded follower design
• Mags are processed in a hot bath of sodium hydroxide, nitrates, & nitrites at 141º centigrade - This converts the surface to “magnetite”.
• All process done under specification of MIL-DTL-13924 & ASTM-D769 & ISO-11408
• The tube is carburized (case hardened) by nitriding (heat treated in a nitrogen atmosphere). This retains a tough core (ductility, flexibility, springiness & resistance to stress fractures) while producing a 46-48 HRC surface hardiness, creating scuff resistance, fatigue & corrosion resistance. Most important, it eliminates any chance for deformation of the front of the mag from cartridge inertia.
• For use in all Gov’t & Commercial 1911 pistols 1911, 1911A1 - Gov’t Series 70, Series 80, commander, Essex, Rock Island, etc. - Also the many, many, many aftermarket 1911’s.
This is half the price of most reasonable .45 1911 magazines!

Good Mags
I am very happy with these. They are a little rough, but very serviceable and great price! No FTF at all with hardball. Have not tried hollow points yet

You get what you pay for
I purchased 3 of these magazines for use in my ATI 1911 compact and, in hindsight, I wish I'd only ordered 1 as a test. Although they lock in and chamber rounds well enough, they take some effort to remove and more often than not the slide will not lock open after the mag is empty. Either that, or the slide will lock but releases as soon as you hit the mag release button.
I'd say these are ok for a casual day at the range where you can take your time but don't use them for competition or self defense. -
Nice mags for the price
These work well with ball ammo and hollow points and for the price you can't beat it, but on my 1911 commander the slide doesn't lock back, it might not be the same for others

Really?
3 of 4 magazines would not either lock the slide, and/or would not come out easily, even with assistance.. I changed the followers and ended up chasing my tail. Now I figure I will put in Tripp followers, and file, stone and hammer the mags a bit. I used 2 1911's, and 3 different slide stops to test them. Sheesh!

1911 mags
I have received my 1911 mags, I will change the number of stars accordingly when I take them to the range to see how the cycle. All I can say is they look well made, I tested cycling with snap caps and ease of loading before and after lubrication of the magazines some did not drop free or lock of the 7 I got, once I lubed the mags with PB blaster and bearing grease they seem to cycle and load much better. The issue of locking back and dropping out free was fixed, I think the spring just needs lube and the grease did the trick. These mags are bare bones, they do not have Teflon or the best follower but for what I need them they seem to work. Over I am happy with the product.

1911 .45ACP
The magazines are an old LLAMA 1911, they work as any 1911 mag should. They seat perfectly, it has a crunchy sound when loading, but still work well. If I need more, I will get these.

7 round magazine
spring sounds a little dry but works great. a good soaking will quiet it down.

Top rated spare mag
It is supposedly a 7 round mag, and I can only fit 6. What a disappoinment. Gave you guys the benefit, but, you get what you pay for

Tough spring
One out of two magazines that I purchased was good the other wouldn’t allow me to load a round in due to the follower not set right it would come out of the magazine it self it was a easy fix but was expected better
