How reliable are the 8rd magazines for these two types of handguns? Since both guns were originally based on 7rd magazines. As for the Sig. I'm talking about the factory 8rd ones (or replacing the follower/spring of a 7rd magazine with a 8rd one). I know for the 1911 it is kind of a general question for them since there is a lot of makes of 1911's and magazines. The Sig I already have (with 7rd magazines). In the next 2-3 weeks I'll be getting a Kimber Custom Classic Target (if this helps). I don't mind using the 7rd capacity ones for both guns. Just wanting to know of other options.

Sig P220/1911 8rd magazines question
- Thread starter uncle
- Start date
I've got both factory 8rd and converted 7rd P220 mags and they both work fine. I've never had a mag related failure to feed.
If you follow Ayoob's tactics, he always loads one round less than the max anyway. In his thinking, the 7rd mag allows you six rounds and the 8rd mag allows you seven. If I remember right, he was all for 8rd mags, because seven is better than six.

As if I didn't think he was enough of a jerk already.
