I have heard some people state that the 10 round mags don't function well with their 1911's. I feel it may have to do with the mag spring tension once the mag gets to the last couple of rounds. The 1911 has a very steep feed ramp. Depending on the bullet shape, mag spring tension, recoil spring, and just the individual gun, it may not like a particular mag.Beiruty wrote:There are 8rds and 10rds mags.

Please recommend, I am a newbie in 1911 world.
My full size Springfield Loaded model will eat anything I put in it. I even have a couple of super cheap 8 round Chinese mags that work fine. My suggestion is try one before you go and buy a bunch to make sure your combination of gun, ammo and mag all work well. Additionally, a good fluff and buff on the feed ramp and proper lubrication will always help one function well.
