Description
10mm is a demanding cartridge, and the magazine doing the feeding has to be up to the task. Wilson Combat has been building 1911 magazines since 1977, and the 47NX brings that same level of care to full-size Government model pistols chambered in 10mm Auto.
The tube is formed from aircraft-grade certified 17-7 PH stainless steel and heat treated for maximum toughness and long service life. Wilson's spring wire is fabricated to maximum tensile strength specs, which means consistent feeding pressure and reliable slide stop engagement whether you're on round one or running the mag dry. The patented extended-skirt, anti-tilt all-metal follower is a key feature here — it prevents the nosedive issues that plague lesser 10mm magazines and ensures lockback on the last round every time.
Capacity is 9 rounds, which gives you one more than the typical factory 10mm 1911 magazine. The removable .350" polymer base pad makes disassembly and cleaning straightforward, and the base pad itself is compatible with a range of aftermarket options if you ever want to swap it out. Witness holes on the tube let you do a quick visual round count without guessing.
This magazine is designed for standard full-size 1911 Government and Commander length pistols in 10mm Auto. It fits a wide range of guns from manufacturers like Rock Island Armory, Dan Wesson, Kimber, Colt, Ruger, and Springfield, among others. As with any aftermarket 1911 magazine, it's always worth testing for fit and function in your specific pistol before committing to a full set. Wilson Combat backs their magazine tubes with a lifetime satisfaction policy — if the tube spreads, cracks, or becomes unusable under normal use, they will replace it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What 1911 pistols will the Wilson Combat 47NX 10mm magazine fit?
The 47NX is designed for standard full-size 1911 Government and Commander length frames chambered in 10mm Auto. It is compatible with pistols from Rock Island Armory, Colt Delta Elite, Dan Wesson, Kimber, Ruger SR1911, Springfield, Sig Sauer, and others built to standard 1911 Government dimensions. Some 1911 models use proprietary magazines — if you are unsure, check with your pistol manufacturer before ordering.
How does the Wilson Combat 47NX compare to standard factory 10mm 1911 magazines?
Most factory 10mm 1911 magazines hold 8 rounds. The 47NX gives you 9, which is a meaningful bump in capacity. Beyond capacity, the Wilson's aircraft-grade 17-7 PH stainless tube, heat-treated construction, and patented anti-tilt follower represent a noticeable step up in build quality over budget or OEM magazines. The anti-tilt follower in particular is designed to eliminate the nosedive feeding issues that the 10mm cartridge can sometimes cause.
Can the Wilson Combat 47NX magazine be left loaded for extended periods without harming the spring?
Yes. Wilson Combat specifically engineers the spring wire to maximum tensile strength specifications, which means it holds up to being stored loaded without the reliability-robbing fatigue you can get from lower-quality springs. This makes the 47NX a solid choice for a dedicated carry or home defense magazine.
Is the base pad on the 47NX removable, and can it be swapped for other base pads?
The standard .350" polymer base pad is fully removable, making disassembly for cleaning simple. It is also compatible with a variety of aftermarket base pad options from Wilson Combat, so you can upgrade to a steel pad or extended pad if your use case calls for it.
Does Wilson Combat offer a warranty on the 47NX magazine?
Wilson Combat backs their magazine tubes with a lifetime satisfaction policy. If the tube spreads, cracks, or becomes unusable during normal use, they will replace it. Springs, followers, and polymer base pads are considered consumable components and are not covered under the lifetime policy, but replacement parts are available directly from Wilson Combat.
Is the Wilson Combat 47NX magazine made in the USA?
Yes, Wilson Combat manufactures their 1911 magazines in the United States. Wilson Combat has been producing 1911 magazines and accessories domestically since 1977.
