Some normally reasonable members are sounding like brand fanboys in this thread...

As far as, "if your gun is in spec," please bear in mind that "in spec" for the 1911 was designed around controlled feed. Wilson mags are popular, and may work well with many guns (as they did with my DW), but they are not controlled feed.

Note also that different makes use different follower shapes, many of which are dissimilar from "in spec" for the MilSpec design.

Again, OP, disregard KoolAid and find mags that work well with your gun and with your preferred ammo.
