The Mec-Gar MGCGOV38B is built for full-size 1911 Government pistols chambered in .38 Super and gives you nine rounds of capacity with clean, flush-fitting design. This magazine brings together Italian engineering with proven reliability that's made Mec-Gar the go-to choice for serious shooters and military suppliers worldwide.
You get a heat-treated carbon steel tube that resists corrosion and holds its shape through thousands of rounds. The higher-tensile music wire spring maintains consistent pressure, and the welded steel baseplate won't fail or deform under field use. Each component works together to ensure feeding stays smooth whether you're at the range, in competition, or when it matters most.
Since 1965, Mec-Gar has manufactured original equipment magazines for major firearm makers and military organizations. The MGCGOV38B carries that same engineering into an aftermarket magazine that handles like factory equipment. It's engineered to Colt-style fitments and 1911 Government dimensions, so it seats and feeds with the predictability you expect from OEM gear.
This is the magazine built for competitive shooting, training sessions, and practical use. The numbered witness holes let you see your round count at a glance. At roughly 9.25 inches long and built from certified carbon steel with a proven design, it fits any standard full-size 1911 Government without requiring modifications to your pistol.
Yes. The MGCGOV38B is engineered for Colt-style fitment and designed specifically for full-size 1911 Government pistols in .38 Super. It seats and feeds reliably in Colt 1911s and other standard Government-sized 1911 platforms chambered in .38 Super.
While some shooters report cross-compatibility in specific situations, the MGCGOV38B is engineered and tested for .38 Super cartridges. For reliable feeding in a 9mm 1911, use a magazine specifically designed for 9mm, as the straight-walled .38 Super case differs from the tapered 9mm case and may cause feeding issues.
Mec-Gar manufactures original equipment magazines for major firearm makers and military organizations worldwide since 1965. Their magazines are built to tight tolerances in Italy with heat-treated carbon steel and high-tensile springs, delivering the same reliability and fit you'd get from factory magazines but at a competitive price point.
The blued finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for range use and typical storage conditions. For extended exposure to moisture or harsh environments, occasional light maintenance keeps the finish in good shape. The heat-treated carbon steel tube provides additional durability beneath the surface.
