Wilson mags are NOT "controlled feed", as the original 1911 mags were. They were designed to release the cartridge before it got captured, to help race guns function. I have a vague recollection they are not reliable when the gun is held sideways or upside down. I do recall seeing one spit it's guts out when dropped on the plastic floorplate. Well, it launched itself when the plastic split, with the body landing a few feet away. I've seen the plastic break a few times, but only that one lost containment.
I prefer the Colt mags, but I wish Mag-Pak still made followers/spring kits for them. You just don't expect a good product to go out of business.
I have a couple Ed Browns and a Tripp Research (https://www.trippresearchinc.com/), but mostly I have Kimber TacPro's for the .45 - a dozen in 7-round configuration.
I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.
You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
