Proven design and build details

The CHIP MCCORMICK CUSTOM 1911 SHOOTING STAR CLASSIC has been built around reliability. Its design features 50% tighter tolerances than typical military-spec magazines, which minimizes internal movement and delivers more consistent feeding. It maintains the same length as stock 1911 magazines while offering extra capacity and improved performance, so you preserve your grip profile and holster compatibility without sacrificing rounds.

Materials and durability

Available in stainless and blued carbon steel, these magazines are finished for long life and corrosion resistance appropriate to your operating environment. Since 1992 this line of .45 ACP magazines has never suffered from the common problem of cracked feed lips — a critical advantage for duty, competition, and defensive use. Each magazine ships with pads for ease of reloads and handling.

Why .45 ACP owners choose this magazine

The SHOOTING STAR CLASSIC is purpose-built for the .45 ACP 1911 platform. .45 ACP remains a favored caliber for its balance of terminal performance and controllability in single-stack frames. These magazines are the same design CMC supplies to America’s top 1911 manufacturers for use as a factory standard, which speaks to their acceptance in professional production and the high expectations of OEM partners.
