In my magazine stash...i found a half dozen 1911 mags that I have had for over twenty years ....that are well used and by the same apparent manufacturer.

They could be repacks. Opened for inspection and repackaged with the newer date.
It doesn't make sense why they would inspect and repackage 1911 mags, but a lot of stuff they do doesn't make sense. |

The prices at gunshows for original USGI 1911 mags has gone insane.
I got into a debate the other day with a guy who swore that the Willson combat custom 1911a1 he has was the best thing since sliced bread...He basically said my colt gold cup was a POS.......I outshot his $3000 + dollar custom pistol with my old 1970's vintage Colt and he got pissed

Over the years I have had many 1911s... I have had 2 gold cups. Both shot better than I could hold them. I have only 5 or 6 left out of the dozens that I used to have. It does not take huge ammounts of cash to vastly improve a well used gi 1911...to really bang them in.
Them gi sights really do suck...and a new gold cup bl and link goes a long way. |
