Please note that the forums in this category are to be used to ask questions or to show us pistols from these manufacturers. They can also be used to ask questions about the parts of a particular pistol from one of these manufacturers, as long as the question relates to the original parts.

  • If your pistol malfunctions and you want to ask for help on how to troubleshoot it, post your question in the "Gunsmithing and Refinishing" forum, not in this one.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market parts, these questions should go in the "Parts - Grips" forum, not in the manufacturers forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market magazines, these questions should go in the "Magazines" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about holsters, those questions should go in the "Holsters" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about conversion kits, those questions should go in the "Conversion Kits" forum, not these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about which ammo to use with your pistol, those questions should be posted in the "Ammo" forum, not these forums.

Messages with questions for after-market parts, magazines, holsters, conversion kits, ammo etc. will be moved to the proper forum and a warning will be issued.

Question
Where to find 14 round .45 acp magazines?

Where is the best place to purchase original 14 round factory magazines for a full-size Bul M5 in .45acp? I have searched and haven't found any sources for factory magazines. Also, are there aftermarket magazines that work reliably?

Thanks in advance for your replies.
Rob

RobTN, the thirteen round Mec-Gar magazine for a Kimber Ten-II high capacity series pistol should work. When Kimber first came out with the polymer pistol, it was made by BUL.

Para P14 mags

My kimber has the bul polymer frame and I got a bunch of para P14 mags for about $20 a pop. You will have to cut about 1 -2 mm off the top of the magazine catch slot because the frames catch is a little higher than the P14 but a little work to the magazine and you will save a lot of $$$$. Try and see. It is a whole lot cheaper than spending $40 -$50 for a after market mag.

Does anyone know how I can get sponsored by bul?

Kimber TenII for M5?

Will the Kimber TenII mags fit the M5 without mods?

I haven' tried any kimber mags except for the one that came with the gun when I purchased it. I know factory kimber mags aren't cheap and neither are the after markets. The only reason why I suggest using para is because they aren't entirely too expensinve.

M-5 Mags

I just got an email from CD customer service and they said the M5 hi cap mags are due into their inventory in October.

I am not holding my breath but it is a key factor to making a decision to get an m-5

I have "heard" that STI/SVI mags will work in the round trigger guard BULs. I hate to say something that I don't know for sure.
