I've read plenty of info on the fact that the GI mags have feed lips NOT designed for the modern HPs - blah blah blah.
BUT, in both my SA Milspec and RIA Tactical, the GI mags make my rounds feed at a higher angle, thus, having led chance to hang up on a 'mag feed' and better to avoid hitting the ramp hard an glancing up.
When I do my static 'mag test' (run on old ash can through the stack from a slide stop release, the GI mags feel smoother in feeding.
At the range, I don't have any problems with them.
Why don't people go after GI mags more often? (And they're $10-12 bucks a pop). You can clean and polish them as slick as any modern mag.
