You're going to have a hard time finding an upper that accepts magazines.

There is a company that makes a carbine style, completed upper that fits onto your 1911 lower frame.  They also make them for Glocks.  If I can find the link I'll post it.



EDIT:  Found it.      http://www.mechtechsys.com/1911.html

That would be the Mech Tech CCU.  I've considered getting a Sarco frame and parts kit and building one on it, but I'm not sure about doing that with an 'unfitted' 1911 frame.

Yes, the lower needs to accept 1911 mags.

And the point is that I might want a bug out carbine and pistol set up that only requires me to carry one type of mag and one type of ammunition.

see:
1911 Drum Magazine

I know someone used to make 20 round straight 1911 mags too. You can bet, if there was a market for 20 or 30 round 1911 mags someone would quickly fill it.
