Regarding mags and FRTB, a full mag is really tight and there is little room for compression of the rounds against the bottom of the breechblock when seating a fully loaded mag with the slide in battery. The manual says to insert the mag with the slide locked, then slingshot to chamber the round. That should put it onto battery if the round headspaces properly on the case mouth.
Topping off and reseating the mag requires extra attention to insure that it seats. Even then, it is binding on the breechblock and might inhibit cycling of the slide on the first shot. I know it is advertised as 7+1. but 6+1 is probably more realistic. It is the same problem that many have with flush fit 8 round mags in a 1911.
Just a thought
