Using 8 round wilsons for a while and they live up to their reputation...

 

Got a 10 round wilson about a month ago - and dosn't work as smothly as the wilson 8s...Some feeding issue, and just not that silky smothness you have in the 8 rounders.

 

Tried the Tripp mags very recently...The 8s are at least on par with the wilsons...Silky smoth - no feeding issues.

 

Here is the kicker: The 10 round Tripps are noticably better then the 10 round wilsons...Smother by quite a bit, no feeding issues. I know this is just 1 sample but like the Tripp so much I ordered another 10 rounder which is becoming my favorate mag for the range.

Thanks for sharing. I have both mags in the 8 round variety. Some of my 1911's prefer one to the other but most of the time it does not matter. Both quality mags.

 

My recent revelation is that my favorite target bullet head for 45acp, the 200g SWC, is a finicky feeder in many of my 1911s. I used a Colt factory mag (recent production) and no more feeding issues in a couple problem guns. The Wilson and tripps would not help feeding them. The colt angles the bullet head up to steeper angle and that allows it to chamber easier.

If you have guns that are picky between those two mags, that gun has problems that need fixing.
