The ProMag 1911 Government .45 ACP 8-round magazine is engineered as a core component for dependable operation in full-size 1911 firearms chambered in .45 ACP. Its design prioritizes consistent feeding and enduring service life across various operational contexts, including range training, competitive shooting, and personal defense applications.
Key Features
- Optimized Capacity: Facilitates 8 rounds of .45 ACP ammunition, providing an effective balance of capacity and profile.
- Specific Compatibility: Precision-engineered for seamless integration and function within 1911 Government models, ensuring reliable performance.
- Nitride Surface Treatment: The steel body undergoes a nitride finishing process, significantly enhancing surface hardness and providing superior resistance to corrosion and wear. This treatment contributes directly to the magazine’s long-term operational integrity.
- Consistent Ammunition Delivery: Internal architecture is designed to promote smooth, uninterrupted feeding, a critical factor for maintaining operational continuity under diverse conditions.
Construction and Materials
The magazine body is constructed from robust steel, selected for its inherent strength and dimensional stability. The application of a nitride finish is a deliberate choice to elevate the material properties, specifically increasing surface hardness and mitigating the effects of environmental exposure, such as rust and abrasion. This treatment extends the magazine’s service life and sustains consistent performance through prolonged use. A high-tensile spring and precision-molded follower work in concert to ensure reliable cartridge presentation and minimize stoppages.
Performance and Reliability
KFF Defense assesses components for their functional reliability. This ProMag magazine delivers consistent cartridge presentation from the first round to the last, supporting uninterrupted firearm operation. Its design parameters address the demands of practical applications, where feeding reliability is non-negotiable. Regular maintenance, including spring inspection and body cleaning, is recommended to preserve optimal function over extended periods of use.
