Gentlemen, I hope I have found a solution to the problematic feeding that plagues the 24/7 in .45. My last trip to the range, each of my 4 magazines suffered a FTF at least once.

The following has not yet been range tested, but it works hand cycling the slide.

I found that ParaOrdnance magazines fit and feed, and even trip the slide lock!

The Para mag has a much lower front lip that completely exposes the feed ramp.

I have a P14 with both the original 13 round and later 14 round magazines. The 13+ size mag does hang out about a 1/2in, and the 14 is a little longer.

I believe, but do not have one on hand to test, that a P12 mag might be very close to flush.

As my Taurus isn't a Carry gun, I have no problems letting the Para Mags 'hang out' at home.

The file names usually represent the location of a magazine relative to others. I hope it's not confusing.
