First I've heard of that.it's not.
kimber factory mags are notoriously bad quality,
and the wilson mags work great with kimbers.
Yes, they do, as long as you replace the followers when worn!
too bad people have to pay all that money for kimbers, then spend a bunch more on reliable mags though.....
Had a reason, wanted 6 8rd magazines for USPSA Single Stack competition.
I guess I'm just a lucky guy, I've never had any problems with my Kimber. In fact, I've never actually seen a problem with a Kimber that could actually be blamed on the pistol. I always thought it was pretty rare, till I started reading this forum.
From my own experience, I fixed my problem, similiar to the OP's by freeing up the magazine follower a little bit and tuning the feed lips a bit.
Here's a great post on the issue from another forum:
