The CMC Products Match Grade 8-round .45 ACP stainless steel magazine is a precision-engineered USGI-style magazine built to tighter tolerances than standard military specifications. Designed for 1911 platforms, this Match Grade magazine delivers consistent feeding and reliable round-count visibility in competition, duty, and training environments where magazine reliability directly impacts performance.
CMC's Match Grade die-controlled tolerances hold specifications to ±.001 inch—more than 75% tighter than typical military magazine specifications—ensuring uniform fit and function across your 1911 inventory. The magazine features aerospace-grade rocket wire springs for consistent spring force and durability under repeated loading cycles. A numbered large-capacity witness hole allows you to verify round count at a glance without removing the magazine, critical for rapid reload drills and match stage planning. The stainless steel construction with welded base plate resists corrosion and handles the rigors of high-round-count practice, coastal environments, and duty use.
This 8-round .45 ACP magazine serves competitive shooters, law enforcement, and 1911 enthusiasts who demand magazines that feed reliably shot after shot. The tighter tolerances eliminate the feeding inconsistencies and follower tilt common to looser mil-spec magazines, reducing malfunctions during critical moments. Eight rounds balances capacity with the classic 1911 profile, making it ideal for traditional single-stack shooters unwilling to sacrifice reliability for increased round count.
The Match Grade standard has become the reference for precision-built 1911 magazines, and CMC's approach to follower design and feed lip geometry reflects decades of 1911 platform expertise. For shooters who understand that magazine quality directly determines gun reliability, this magazine represents the measurable upgrade over standard-tolerance alternatives.
