I had to jump in and defend them, though! I honestly don't think they're inferior in any way. I think they are built with quality metal, by quality engineers, but you're correct on the slave labor.  >:(

Alf, I agree about the 7 rounders but a lot of people don't trust 8 or 10 rounders!  7 was the original design.  Some people even download  8 rounders to 7...go figure.

FWIW

I have never had probs with colt factory 8 round mags.  every other 8 rounder I have.  never liked the 10s, they stick out too far.

I have some 20 year old Wilson 8 rounders that are still going strong. Only extra capacity mags I've had issues with are the Chip McCormick 10 rounders.

Mags are one of those things that can be hit or miss......and one of the areas where mileage will vary.

I think a big part of why mags fail is abuse.

feed lips are every thing.  A small bend is all it takes to make a mag fail.

Not offering an argument, just a question. Will the Rock Island go bang everytime you pull thre trigger and deliver shots to point of aim? If I can feed it crap and get four inch groups at 10 yards out of the box, I'll buy it. If not, I'll pass. Thoughts?
