Metalform mag review

Howard. Load the mags full and let the springs take a "set". I have to do this with new Wilsons, too Load 'em up and leave 'em loaded a couple days. I leave mine fully loaded all the time...springs wear out by cycling, not from being compressed

They're only problems if they continue...

Or as we say in the sales biz: They are "opportunities". Opportunities to learn from and improve upon..

I've never had a problem with them. I like them for the range. Almost indestructible and cheap. I carry Tripp's and Wilson's.

Howard, did they have the flat followers or the round metal followers? I've never had a problem with my metalform mags but they are all the older 7 rounders with round metal followers.

I've found the flat split followers do a number on aluminum frames
