It stumps me why people still buy 47Ds.
Don’t blame me. I didn’t vote for that dumb bastard.
Yep, the ETM is a better magazine. The ETM/HD and Vickers Duty mags with the flat wire springs are even better.
The ETMs with plastic basepads are only $2.00 more than the 47Ds: https://shopwilsoncombat.com/8-Round/products/371/
Yeah, when I bought all of my 47Ds it was quite a bit less $$$ than ETMs, IIRC it was to the tune of $10 apiece and I was gearing up for USPSA single stack so for my purposes the 47s were plenty good. Also they seemed to be the most available as I recall. If I have to replace them it looks like ETMs are the way to go now.
So, educate me here.
What is wrong with the 47D?
I have a fair # of them that I have had for years, and used extensively when I shot them in uspsa.
I think they were the only W.C. 8 round mag offered at the time.
They still work flawlessly, am I missing something?
