Wilson Combat Magazines

[Sandman]

I'm looking to order some WC Magazines and I have a quick question. I have an ultra compact 1911 and I found the magazines that fit it. I have two options...7 rounds or 8 rounds. Would the 8 round one cause overhang? I mean if they both fit the same (flush fit), why wouldn't I opt for the 8 round? Thanks!

What model of 1911 is it?

[Sandman]

Springfield Ultra Compact

I also have a full size 1911...I guess the same question applies with the 8 or 10 round magazines.

I looked at all that, but if you go to the magazines for compact (they all fit ultra compact springer) you can either get 7 rd mags or 8...will they both fit flush?

[willis68]

They should, it is best to call Wilson, I have never owned a sub compact 1911

The 10 rounders however will not be flush, they stick out

My Wilson Combat 47d 8rd magazine sticks out of the grip on my SA Mil-spec 5".

I really doubt that 8 rounder will fit flush on an ultra compact. Like Jeff said, with a full size 1911 the 8 rounders stick out a tiny bit.

On a full size 1911 the 8. Round mag will hang out just a tad due to the base pad. This is so if you are running a magwell you will get a firm seating on insert. If you are using a officer or compact frame 1911 they will hang out even more. A 10 round mag will hang out even more, maybe about an inch and a half.

The wilson 47dc's are the closest thing they make to a flush fit, Wilson uses bumper pads and the C stands for concealment. Those are what I use in my commander carry gun
