RevMatt:
My LW Commander started doing the same thing recently.
Fortunately, I have a Government Colt also, and I switched over to it while I troubleshot the Commander.
The problem came with me to the Government.
The common elements to the stovepipe failures are two Colt 8rd magazines with McCormick-style springy followers.
I tried replacing the mag springs in my 8rd Colt mags, and that didn't resolve the issue.
I switched over to magazines equipped with fixed-platform followers. I used Wilsons and ACT's. The problem is now gone, in both guns.
