Irish Pat Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 i bought these two Colt magazines from a widow that had already sold her husband’s guns. they are new and i thought they would work in my full size 1911. well now that I have finally tried them they are too short for my 45 automatic. they are new as far as I can tell. They are Colt manufacture. one hold 7 easy they other one keeps popping out number 7. How about $50 shipped for both. Irish ☘️ Pat i am only selling the two short mags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Pat Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 after more research I believe that they are Colt Defender 6 round magazines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyesa Horg Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Officers model is shorter as well. My full size 1911 mags measure 4 5/8" from the highest point on top straight down to the bottom of the base plate and my Officers model mags measure 4 1/8". A full 1/2" difference.
