Did anyone ever make a flush fit type floorplate for the Wilson 47/47D magazines? Login/Join

I have these floorplates here on the right: https://www.flickr.com/photos/...04/shares/8EF483R9y2

They look like they would replace the stock rubber floorplates on Wilson magazines to make them flush fit. I don't see them on WC's website and have not managed to google up any details.

Anyone seen these before?

Thanks

Are those possibly the Wilson Combat low-profile basepads?

When I was more heavily into 1911s, my go-to magazine was the seven-round 47 variant that came equipped with their low-profile steel basepads. Those are close to flush-fit (but not quite).

You can buy 47s / 47Ds with the low-profile pads or you can buy the pads separately in either steel or aluminum, IIRC.

Edited to add: I may have misunderstood the question. The picture shows basepads on the left and floorplates on the right. The Wilson 47 / 47D requires both components, with the low-profile basepads I’ve mentioned above offering a significantly lower profile than their standard basepad, yet not quite a truly flush fit.

My apologies for any confusion on my part.

The steel base pads on the left are indeed WC product. The ones on the right marked "Patented" are full floorplate length and kind of look like the floorplate retainer on a WC 47/47D but they are not.
