Springfield Armory 1911 Compact Magazine - 6-Round - Blued

Compact 1911 Magazine

This is a factory Springfield Armory 6-round magazine for compact 1911 pistols, the shorter-grip versions of the classic single-stack design. It suits owners who carry a compact 1911 every day and want spares that match the original equipment, along with shooters who need extra magazines for range sessions and drills. It is a single-stack magazine, meaning the rounds sit in one straight column, which keeps the grip slim.

Features

• Springfield Armory Factory Part — Made by Springfield Armory for its own compact 1911 line, so it matches the magazine your pistol shipped with.
• 6-Round Capacity — Holds six rounds, a standard load for a shortened 1911 grip frame.
• Steel Body — The tube is formed from steel, which holds its shape and keeps the feed lips true over years of loading.
• Blued Finish — Bluing, a controlled oxidation treatment that turns the steel dark, gives a deep black finish in keeping with a traditional 1911.
• Staggered Witness Holes — Witness holes, the small round ports drilled in both sides, let you count how many rounds are loaded at a glance.
• Single-Stack Design — Rounds stack in one column, which keeps the magazine thin enough for the narrow 1911 grip.
• Magazine Catch Cutout — A rectangular notch in the side engages the pistol's magazine release, locking the magazine in place until you press the button.
• Flat Steel Floorplate — A low, flat base plate keeps the magazine flush with the bottom of the grip, so it sits cleanly for concealed carry.

Fit and Compatibility

This magazine is sized for compact 1911 frames, which have a shorter grip than full-size Government and Commander models. Check that your pistol takes a compact-length magazine and confirm the chambering before you order, because full-size 1911 magazines and compact ones are not the same length. Carry owners often buy several so every magazine in the rotation feels and seats the same.
