Two stars for two mags that worked.
Two of the mags worked great. One had several feed issues.Upon further investigation the mag that did not work kept on nose diving rounds into the wall of the mag. I will not be buying Wilson mags again I guess QC must have took a dive,

Could not Load the Eigth Round by Hand
on any of the nine Wilson Combat 47D magazines I just purchased. I am an experienced 1911 shooter and have strong hands, but I could not apply enough thumb pressure get that last (eighth) round to fully seat. However, I could fully load all of these magazines with my Uplula magazine loader.The spring on all nine of these newer 47D magazine were very stiff. I say newer, because I own nine 47D magazines that never had this problem from day one. The Brownells tech suggests that I fill them up and let them set for a few weeks. But this sounds a bit sketchy for Wilson Combat magazines - shouldn't be necessary. So I just returned them .The return was easy and free. .
