Function is indistinguishable from OEM
Purchased this as a spare mag for my 1911A1. Well made, solid magazine. Feels, loads, feeds and functions perfectly. The only difference is the color. I Will purchase again.

Work better than my OEM magazines.
These Mec-gar magazines worked very reliably right from the start. They load easily, strip smoothly and drop free. The metal body is polished and very smooth, maybe even coated with something. I use these magazines over the Colt ones for personal carry when reliability counts. My OEM Colt magazines hold the slide back with one or two rounds still left. I've been trying different springs with no luck. Note: When I robbed the springs and followers from the Mec-gar magazines, my Colt magazines ran well except I still can't get the 9th round in.
