Just picked up my Kimber 1911 .45 Pro Carry II. I am interested in purchasing some Wilson Combat magazines in 7 round capacity. What models of ther magazine are useable in this gun? Please be specific as there is a 47 for a full size or a 47OX for the Commander size, and on and on.
I have a Solo CDP LG & as far as I know, the only mags out there are Kimber OEM in 6 round & 8 round. I have (2) 6 rounds & (1) 8 round. They all function perfectly( after I fully loaded them & parked them for a long while to relax the springs)
I haven't encountered any issues that would give me reason to look elsewhere for Solo mags. Are you experiencing any problems?
Rick,
I posted this on another thread. I am having issues with the 8 round mags.
If you have any advice please post or contact.
See below post:
I mentioned earlier on another thread about issues with loading rounds 7 and 8 in the extended mag. They don't seat well. They angle down and
results in fail to feed. Yesterday at the range for the first time I had FTF issues with the first 2 rounds (7-8 while loading). They just don't seat correctly and pop down. I have 6 of these mags and all did basically the same thing. The six round mags were flawless as usual. Does anyone else have such problems with the 8 round mags? Has anyone found any resolutions? This seems to be a common issue. Would appreciate your comments.
Picked up my Gander Mountain edition on Friday, After a decent break in period, I'll use it as my carry weapon replacing my M&P Shield. Also looking to buy a few Wilson mags but it's difficult to buy anything these days.
Not really, I picked up my Solo CDP on Friday and was at the range on Sunday, while loading it for the first time it seemed as if the walls were spreading. Not sure if it was just an illusion. I did set it to the side loaded to see if the spring will loosen up a bit.
Since I only have "one" I thought that if I was going to buy more then I would see what is out there. Thanks for the quick response.
I bought a solo about a month ago. Luckily the dealer had a couple of extra solo mags in stock. I regret I only bought 1. $24.95 I think.
Hirsheys Discount guns Fort Wayne indiana.
I received a "back in stock" e-mail from gunclips.com saying thy had 10.
I immediately went there and placed an order.
A couple of hours later, they sent me an e-mail saying their inventory software screwed up and they did not have any.
Then shortl later they sent another e-mail saying they found 2 and are sending them.
I purchased a new Solo CDP LG today here in Las Vegas. One mag came with it. Store did not have anymore, looking on the internet and not any to be found! Anybody have any sugestions!
Called Wilson Combat today! Was told they do not make a magazine for the Solo, and as far as he knew Kimber is the only game in town.
Called kimber after looking on there web site, was told they were out of stock on both mags the 6 and 8 round.
Said to call back or keep watching the web site mid May and after! They will not take back orders.
E-Bay has them on a bids for $75.00 for the 6 round and over 125.00 for the exteneded 8 round. There nuts..........................
Check in everyday to the Kimber website. Every few months, for two or three days, they will have them available. That's how I got my two recently. i did the same for their recoil springs which I got as a spare for "when the time comes."
For loading, I bought one of the Maglulu auto loaders which helps get those last few rounds in very easily.
