Brownells
The Brownells Gen2 1911 45 ACP 8-round magazine brings modern engineering to a platform that's been the standard for over a century. Built for shooters who demand reliability in their .45 ACP 1911s—whether you're running competition, training, or defensive drills—this magazine combines time-tested function with materials science that keeps pace with today's demands. The heat-treated stainless steel construction resists corrosion and handles the rigors of regular use, while the Xylan coating adds a low-friction finish that makes insertions smooth and keeps your mag working clean.
Brownells engineered this Gen2 design with practical details. The skirted anti-tilt follower paired with an extra-power spring ensures rounds feed reliably round after round, and witness holes on the body let you do a fast visual count without removing the magazine. The removable polymer base pad isn't just convenient for field stripping—it also absorbs impact when you're doing rapid magazine changes under stress, adding durability to a critical piece of gear.
If you shoot .45 ACP 1911s and you've been running whatever came in the box or inherited from an older collection, upgrading to a Gen2 Brownells magazine is a low-cost way to shore up one of your gun's most important systems. Eight rounds, reliable feeding, corrosion resistance, and a mag that won't let you down.
| Caliber | .45 ACP |
| Platform | 1911 |
| Capacity | 8 rounds |

Yes. This is a standard 1911 .45 ACP magazine, and it will fit any mil-spec or commercial 1911 in .45 ACP with standard magazine wells.
Witness holes let you count your rounds at a glance without removing the magazine from the gun or taking it apart. Practical for training and competition where you need to know your round count fast.
Yes. The removable polymer base pad comes off easily, so you can disassemble the magazine for cleaning and inspection. The base pad also helps protect the magazine from impact damage if it hits the ground during rapid reloads.
The stainless steel body and Xylan coating both resist corrosion, so this magazine will hold up well in humid conditions and regular use without surface rust issues.
