WILSON COMBAT - 1911 SPRING & FOLLOWER KIT FOR WILSON MAGAZINES

I bought this Wilson follower/spring to replace the "Shooting Star" follower in one of my Ruger P90DC mags. That particular follower allows for 8 rds. in 7 rd. magazine, but upon feeding the last rd., the follower moves forward allowing the lip of the follower to dig into the aluminum frame. This Wilson follower kit converts this "late model" mag back into the "earlier" 7 rounders, as are my other original mags.

I had two 7 round Wilson mags on hand. One with a broken follower that casued the slide to not lock back after the last round was shot. Rather than replace with a standard 7 round follower kit I decided to order the 8 round follower kit & upgrade both, on the basis I could see no operational difference in the body or floor plate of the two typoes of magazines. I am delighted to report that wth snap caps they seem to function perfectly as 8 rounders. I will modify the mag body with the 8 round observation hole after live fire testing them on an IPSC course this weekend.

I used this kit to repair another 1911 magazine of different manufacturer. Putting in this spring and follower made this magazine a top-notch running item. Buy with confidence it's Wilson Combat!

Good product. Works fine. If you have Wilson 47d mags of any age you likely need to replace the springs.

After 35 years of owning these magazines, I found that they weren't activating the slide stop, otherwise they fed and functioned flawlessly. So I figured it was time to give them new life with new springs. As usual and what you would expect from Wilson, fit and finish are excellent and they went together smoothly.
