Choosing a 1911 magazine is kinda like choosing a pet, there are some that are almost always good options (Wilson Combat, Tripp, CMC, ect) while others are good for specific people or guns.

Re: 1911 break in

In addition to what Andy said, what kind of ammo are you feeding it? What does the follower on the magazine look like (is there a bump in the middle of it)? Are the feed lips symmetrical? Is the magazine a flush fit unit, and if it is how many rounds does it hold? It definitely sounds like a magazine issue, like 99.9% of all semi-auto problems, so please do not listen to people who tell you to "Polish" the feed ramp.
