New to me Colt 1903 in .32 - Magazine?
A long-time (almost 60 years!) friend is gifting me his Colt .32. I don’t have it yet because it has to go thru an FFL transfer. I have seen it and handled before and it’s in pretty good shape (barrel is a little rough) with a two-tone magazine. I want to get a second mag for it & needless to say would like to get a quality mag. Thought I saw here on SWF that some company was producing new Colts and mags? I will post some pix once it’s shipped to me ... Thanks!

I bought a mag from the company that is making the 1903 repros for Colt. It was very reasonable (seems like 30 bucks) and it works great.
Edited to add:
U.S. Armament Corp sells them online for 36 bucks.
Looks like they are temporarily out of stock.

Found them sir - Thank you! Hopefully they’ll be back in stock in the next month or so. I am anxious for this pistol to show up because I had one previously - an older lady gave it to me (via my mother) and it had quite a history. I gave it to my brother in a fit of foolishness and it’s long gone from the family ...

I bought a couple of Triple K mags for my 1908, and they have worked flawlessly. The one you're looking at, may actually be made by Triple K.

The base is marked Colt 32 auto (good mags)from us armerment .
Some unscrupulous dealers are removing the bluing on the top 1" and selling as original colt mags for over $100.00

The ones made by US Armament are much better than Triple K. They are also about the same price. I have three original Colt pistols, one early, one middle and one late. The new magazines work beautifully in all three pistols. I bought several.

Reviews of Triple K seem to be hit or miss.....
