A 1911 runs on its magazine, and this is a factory Springfield Armory unit built to the correct dimensions for the platform. It is a 7-round .45 ACP magazine in stainless steel, matching the classic single-stack capacity the pistol was designed around and feeding reliably in full-size government-frame guns.

Stainless construction resists the corrosion that comes with carry and sweat, and the factory-spec follower and spring keep feed lip geometry and follow-up timing correct, which is precisely where cheap aftermarket magazines cause trouble. Whether you are replacing a tired magazine or building a range rotation, a known-good factory mag is the cheapest reliability upgrade a 1911 can get.
