The CobraMag magazine (designed by Virgil Tripp) is the most advanced, well thought out magazine for the 1911 available. It has outstanding design features that include a polished, heat treated stainless steel tube with CNC machined feed lips engineered for the specific caliber. The tube and base pad design allows a spring with more full-size coils (14 coils of .042") than any other 1911 magazine. This provides a much longer spring life and a stronger, more consistent round lifting force, which is important to the feed timing in a 1911 and is crucial in 1911 pistols that are shorter than a Government Model. The hybrid polymer/stainless steel follower has an anti-tilt design that helps reduce nose diving malfunctions. The stainless steel band at the front of the follower lifts the pistols slide stop, rather than allowing the softer polymer to do the work and eventually become worn. The polymer base pad features a pattern of dimples that you can mark to number your magazines. The 8R-45-RG magazine is of a length that will be adequate for use with add-on mag wells and give positive insertion in standard length pistols.

Amazing magazines. Exceptional feeding and quality construction

Tripp Research mags are really great.  I chose to get them in black.  Unlike the polished stainless models these need a little bit of use to break in.  The coating can make the follower a little gritty at first.  But run the mag.  It smooths out with just one range trip.  You really wont regret these mags.  The springs are extra heavy.  Which also after a few uses settle to the perfect tension.  Excellent product.

Feeds Everything!

The Tripp Cobra Mags are without a doubt the best 1911 magazines on the market. They are 100% reliable and will feed every ammo that I have ever loaded into them. I recently purchased a new 1911 (Tisas 1911 Raider B45RDG - Colt M45A1 clone) and the first time at the range I was trying several different .45ACP loads; when I loaded the factory Mec-Gar 8rd. magazines with PMC 185gr. JHP, the round nosedived into the frame ramp and pushed the projectile deep into the case. I tried a few other different magazines - Ruger 7rd, Colt 7rd., Wilson Combat 10rd. - all of which resulted in the same issue (to varying degrees). I loaded one of my Tripp magazines with 8 rounds of the PMC JHP, and it fed all 8 rounds without any problems - which, based on my experience with the Tripp magazines in my other 1911s - in all honesty - I fully expected. Yes, Tripp Cobra Magazines are expensive (but they less expensive here than elsewhere), but the quality and reliability are well worth it.
