8-Round 9mm Capacity – Ideal for Compact 1911 Carry
With an 8-round capacity of 9mm Luger, this magazine is an excellent match to the compact 1911 platform:
Provides ample on-board capacity while still maintaining a slim, low-printing profile
Ideal for concealed carry, where both capacity and concealment matter
Perfect for defensive drills and range training, where 8-round strings mimic real-world carry conditions
Paired with one in the chamber, you’re carrying 9 rounds of 9mm in a classic, easy-to-shoot 1911 package.
Stainless Steel Body – Durable, Corrosion Resistant & Smooth Feeding
The PI0920 uses a stainless steel magazine tube, offering durability and longevity:
Resists corrosion from sweat, humidity, and daily carry much better than untreated carbon steel
Stands up to repeated reloads, drops, and holster/range use
Smooth exterior for easy insertion and positive ejection from the magwell
If you carry daily or train hard, stainless steel construction helps your mags stay reliable season after season.
Engineered for Reliable Feeding & Positive Slide Lock
Springfield Armory designs its magazines as an integral part of the platform:
Precision-formed feed lips maintain proper cartridge presentation for smooth, consistent feeding
High-quality spring maintains steady upward pressure, reducing the risk of nose dives or misfeeds
A properly tuned follower is designed to engage the slide stop reliably for last-round slide lock
From slow-fire accuracy work to rapid defensive strings, this mag is built to keep your Ultra Compact cycling cleanly.
