Hi,
I just bought some used Shooting Star mags based on very positive feedback all over the net. they look to be in great shape. My wife was shooting her stainless MKIV combat commander and had a last round FTF in 2 out of 6 mags. Shooting UMC 230 hardball. The FTFs were identical; the round nosed up and jammed against the top of the barrel. Neither she nor I have ever had a single malfunction of any kind using the 8-rd colt mags that I got with the pistol... which have a thin metal follower very similar to the McCormick ones. The pistol is stock and well-maintained. A few hundred rounds through it max.
Questions:
1. will wolff +10 power springs likely remedy this? If so, which ones do I buy? are the springs different for the 8-rd shooting star type mags with the thin follower?
2. Would limp-wristing possibly contribute to this?
