I divide magazines into 2 groups: range magazines, and carry magazines.
A range magazine is one that works pretty well- a stoppage at the range isn't the end of the world. A carry magazine is one that works flawlessly every time. Those are the magazines you carry when you carry the pistol for protection.
I have a bunch of different range magazines, including some rusty old GI surplus ones.
For carry, I use only Ed Brown or Wilson Combat. I believe those are closer to 30$. I suggest you get 1 or 2 of those if you'll carry the 1911 for protection.
Chip McCormick makes a decent magazine, too, and I think those are under 20$.
Whatever you buy, test it extensively in your gun before putting the magazine in the 'carry' group.
