Blued Steel Construction – Classic Look, Modern Durability
The PI6086 is constructed from steel with a blued finish, giving it that traditional 1911 aesthetic while also protecting against wear and corrosion. Gary's Gun Shop+2lafayetteshooters.com+2
Advantages of the blued steel body:
Rigid magazine walls that help keep feed lips in spec even after thousands of rounds
Corrosion resistance for everyday carry, range use, and long-term storage with proper care
A low-glare, deep-blue finish that matches blued and parkerized 1911 pistols
For shooters who appreciate the timeless look of a classic 1911, this mag completes the package.
Slam Pad Base – Faster, More Confident Reloads
A standout feature of the PI6086 is its polymer slam pad base. Product listings emphasize that this mag includes an integrated slam pad / base pad specifically to improve handling and seating. Gary's Gun Shop+2Sportsman's Outdoor Superstore+2
The slam pad helps you:
Seat the magazine positively during speed reloads or under stress
Protect the magazine body from impact when it’s dropped on concrete or gravel
Get a more secure grip when drawing mags from pouches or pockets
For defensive training, competition, or high-tempo range sessions, that extra bit of insurance matters.
7-Round Capacity – Classic 1911 Reliability
While extended-capacity 1911 mags exist, many serious shooters still prefer 7-round magazines for their proven reliability. PI6086 keeps things true to the original single-stack design: Cheaper Than Dirt+2Gary's Gun Shop+2
Traditional 7-round capacity that has made the 1911 legendary for over a century
Less stress on springs compared with some higher-capacity designs
Maintains the original grip profile and balance of the 1911 platform
That makes this magazine a strong choice for carry, duty, and defensive training, where reliability is more important than squeezing in one extra round.
OEM Quality for Carry, Range, and Defensive Training
Because this is a Springfield Armory factory magazine, it’s built with the same materials, tolerances, and quality control as the mags that ship with new Springfield 1911 pistols. Retailers note that PI6086 is engineered as a direct replacement for Springfield 1911 OEM mags, ensuring proper fit and function. Cheaper Than Dirt+2Sportsman's Outdoor Superstore+2
Ideal uses include:
Concealed carry / EDC: Blued steel and slam pad stand up to daily wear
Home defense: Keep trusted factory mags staged (stored safely) with your 1911
Range work & classes: Rotate multiple magazines for reload drills and high round counts
Many shooters keep separate sets of “carry” and “training” mags—PI6086 fits perfectly in both roles.
