Description

Wilson Combat built its reputation on making the most reliable .45 auto magazines in the world, and the 4745FS8B is a prime example. This full-size magazine holds 8 rounds and pairs with Government and Commander length 1911 pistols to give you maximum capacity without extending beyond your grip frame.

The magazine body is manufactured from .025 inch thick aircraft-grade 17-7 PH stainless steel, heat-treated for maximum durability. This is the thickest material in the industry, which means the tube resists deformation and wear that commonly causes feeding problems. The black fluoropolymer finish provides corrosion protection while maintaining that tactical look.

Inside, you'll find a specially fabricated spring made from high tensile strength wire for enhanced feeding and positive slide stop operation. The fiber-fill nylon self-lubricating follower keeps things running smooth without snagging, and Wilson's tight dimensional tolerances mean your magazine will drop free from your pistol every time. Wilson Combat's dimensional control is so precise that you'll never encounter a mag that doesn't seat properly or leaves rounds feeling tight in the tube.

Whether you're a range regular, competition shooter, or running a defensive setup, these magazines have earned their reputation with professional users, elite special operations units, and FBI tactical teams worldwide. You're not buying marketing hype here, just a 30-year track record of putting out magazines that work when it matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this magazine work in my non-Wilson Combat 1911?

Yes. Wilson Combat magazines are designed to meet original 1911 specifications and work with most quality full-size 1911 manufacturers including Colt, Springfield Armory, Kimber, Rock Island, and others. However, some Kimber models have factory feed ramps that may interfere with the magazine's ramped front. If you're unsure about compatibility with your specific pistol, contact Wilson Combat directly.

How does this 8-round magazine compare to a standard 7-round?

The 4745FS8B uses the same tube length as a standard 7-round magazine but employs a specially tuned spring and follower to safely fit 8 rounds. This gives you one extra round per mag without extending beyond your grip frame on full-size 1911s. Some competition shooters prefer the added capacity for match runs.

Can I leave this magazine loaded for extended periods?

Yes. One of Wilson Combat's biggest advantages is that their magazines can remain fully loaded without spring damage or permanent set over long periods. This is backed by their lifetime satisfaction policy on magazine tubes. Springs are considered consumable and may eventually need replacement with heavy use.

Will this magazine feed hollow point defensive rounds?

Absolutely. Wilson Combat magazines are tested and proven to feed a wide range of ammunition including hollow points, soft points, and all standard factory loads. The premium follower design and precise feed lips work with different bullet profiles consistently.

Is the black fluoropolymer finish durable?

The fluoropolymer finish provides excellent corrosion resistance and is tougher than typical paint. It won't chip easily and handles range use well. The real durability comes from the stainless steel body underneath, which is naturally corrosion-resistant.

What makes Wilson Combat magazines different from budget alternatives?

Wilson Combat controls every step of manufacturing, from material sourcing to proprietary welding and deburring processes. They use the thickest stainless steel available, precision-tuned springs, and optimized followers. This obsessive attention to detail is why their magazines are trusted by elite military units and professionals worldwide.
