Poor Fit
Will not fit Taurus 1911 9mm. Factory mags glide in and out. This mag did not fit at all at fist. There was a high spot in the Taurus the kept the factory mags from rattling. After filing down the high spot slightly the mag made it to the mag catch and stopped. I needed to press the mag relies to get the mag filly seated. Then the mag would get caught up on something else on the way out. I don't know if this is a testament to Taurus quality or Metalform.
Poor magazine
I bought 2 of these for my RIA 9mm. First of all, neither would fit in the gun. One would insert, but became very tight and had to be forcibly removed from the gun. The other wouldn't insert at all. Got about 1/2 way in and stopped dead. Liberal use of sanding on high points eventually got them to fit, but function was spotty. Rounds nose dive into the feed ramp and jam the pistol. Especially if loaded to capacity. Misfeeds. And one of them won't lock the slide open on the last round. The spring appears to be week and won't hold the slide stop up. Every other brand of magazine I've tried in the gun work perfectly, with Cobra mags being the best of the lot.
Tight fit in a Springfield Armory
I bought four of these for my new Springfield Armory 1911-A1 and none of them fit correctly. They were so tight in the gun that I had to force them out. The two factory mags dropped free and were even a little loose when seated. I returned them for exchange.
metalform 1911 magazine 9mm
Bought 6 of these for my 1911 Les Baer. NONE of them function in my gun. Springs are to weak to eject from gun. Garbage!!!
