I was shooting today, and I think I have finally worn out 2 Wilson 47D magazines. They are about 15 years old. Neither of these 2 can reliably hold back the slide after the last cartridge is fired on several different 1911s. They feed fine and still cycle well.
What causes a mag to fail to hold back the slide? Wear on the nylon follower? or wear on metal?
