Ruger 1911 LW9 mags

Who makes them?

 

Warbird,

Please let me know how the McCormick's work out. I have a SR1911 9mm and am having problems with the Ruger 8 round mags. One of my mags, the most I can load is 5 rounds. I cannot find any mags around the Phoenix/Mesa area.

Thanks,
Tommy

 

Wilson 10 round 9mm mags worked fine in my CMD.

 

My originals cycle fine, but they are still very tight to load. I went shooting on Tuesday, taking a very experienced friend with me. On a side note, he has shot 1911 for many years, and was very impressed with the 1911 LW9. He noticed that the mags were tight to load, and commented that I should load them up and leave them for a couple of weeks. I informed him that they had been loaded for 8 months...

 

I was having the same problem with my SR1911 9mm magazines. I called Ruger and talked to Corine. I told her that one of my mags would only take 5 rounds and I could not load another round into the mag due to the spring tension. She said she would send a new mag out right away. I called her on Thursday and received it Friday. Spectacular service!!!! She said that usually loading the 7th round you would experience some problems until the mag spring is broken in and then it should be okay. If not, then contact her and she would replace them. They also have an outlet in Ga. I believe and she called them and hooked me up on the phone. They carry Ruger 9mm mags but the price is $39.95 plus shipping. I would think that you could buy a Chip McCormick or even a Wilson for the same amount or less money. MHO only!
