I did a search but got too many threads to look through for my answer so I decided to post the question.
I just bought a Springfield Mil-spec and was shooting it. I also have a Springfield loaded model 1911 and use primarily Wilson magazines. Well, when I used the Wilson's in the new Mil-spec I would get FTE on the second to the last round. With the factory mag it ran fine. Now the Wilson's worked great in my other pistol. I asked around and was told that it is because the Wilson's use a stronger spring in their mags and the newness of the pistol was the problem. The recoil spring was so tight and the mag spring was so tight that that is what was causing the hang up. Is this true???
I am going to give it another 500-600 rounds before I get too bent out of shape, but I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience and what the result was?
Thanks.
