Tripp Research has the mags you need.

 

Thank you. Have you ever used any?

 

I'd say you may have the best results from Colt or Tripp mags but, don't expect any 10 round mags to be reliable especially in a production gun, and especially 10mm. Just my opinion along with many other smiths, but everyone is allowed to try and form their own conclusions. Better luck here in 9 round 10mm mags. Colt mags, and DW mags with rounded followers seem to run better, got this info from Rob at ACW and helped with a stubborn 10mm build.

Agreed 100% on the Colt and DW mags! They are made by Metalform and work excellent for 10mm.

 

I have Tripps. I had Tripp make me some basepads that let me use them in compact models as well. I just switch basepads depending on if I am shooting my Vbob 10 or my CCO 40.

 

I have found 10rd 10mm mags by Tripp to be problematic, for what it's worth. First couple rounds have tendency to go nose-down, so I ended up downloading them to 8-9 anyway.

 

The tripp slightly extended 10 round mags run in everything I own.
The flush fit 10round mags run in the guns I've built and the ramp angles are correct.

If you gun doesn't run with tripp mags call Virgil and he will fix thee gun for you and make sure they run,
FWIW

 

I'm going to guess that what you want is a 10mm magazine that uses the same tube length as a ten round 45acp magazine. I have also thought before that would be an interesting option. I think you could have 12-13 rounds of 9mm in such a magazine, 10mm probably one less. I once reached out to Wilson Combat and Nighthawk and asked about such a magazine. I expected a vague non-committal answer, but I got a swift answer from both that they had no plans to make such a magazine. IDK if it's the geometry of the rounds, no desire to break the 10 round magazine threshold, or a belief that there's not enough market for a "high capacity" single stack magazine, but something that seems perfectly reasonable to me is apparently a non-starter.

 

With respect to 9mm, it's geometry. 9mm Parabellum rounds unfortunately have a very slight taper, so the more rounds you stack in a single stack magazine, the lower the nose goes. 10 rounds seems to be the absolute max before bad stuff happens.

38 Super doesn't have the tapering design flaw of 9mm Parabellum (iirc it only tapers on the inside of the casing and the outside is straight), so that might have a better shot, but there are still limits to single stacks and reliability.

Nighthawk does make a 12 round single stack 1911 in 30 Super Carry, but I've never known anyone who has shot one.

 

Ain’t seen any extended 10MM mags.. your best bet would be a double stack 1911 10MM…16+1 I believe.. now that’s FIRE POWER…👍🇺🇸

 

I have a Bruin that came with a Tripp magazine when I got it - 10 rounder. The Bruin does not like it for some reason...works great in my RIA full size and commander with no issues (kind of shocked actually).

 

I’m breaking in a Bruin and a Springfield 6” 10 mm. I’m 300 rounds into the 500 target. They love the DW mags 100% of the time. My new Trip did not give 100%. Since the DW mags are made by MetalForm (in my Bruin anyway,) I bought more MetalForm. I’m not going to solve a mag problem if I have such an easy solution. I have a Colt Delta Elite (old new stock) and a Dan Wesson Razorback that are next up. It will be interesting to see what they like.

I shoot 50 rounds in each gun then clean them. Great way to spend retirement.

More to come.
