do you load 8 rounds? I’m just fixated on 8-roundsSame here. 47 D’s in my 1911’s for years now with zero issues.

I’m trying, but that last round wouldn’t go in without a fightI load 8 rounds in the Mec-Gars---no problems.
I’m planning to run my mags in Heavy Metal USPSA single stack! in a few years. So I’m going to slam, smack, kick, throw in mud - dirt, all that fun stuff!I have to ask how hard do people run their 1911 mags? It is not just rounds through the tubes its mag changes at speed from a pouch, dropping them on the ground during a mag change, slamming them into the magwell etc... When you use mags in this way is what separates the wheat from the chaff. If you are only standing firing a string removing the mag placing it on the bench and inserting another the overall quality of the construction does not matter as much. IMHO
my research shows that shooter wanted a update to the aging 47D line, so WC came out with the ETM line including the Vicker.Another question where a Search would yield many answers.
47Ds, ETMs, and Chipp McCormick are all fine. If they did not work, Wilson would not sell them.
never a truer statement! “Be careful... one 1911 usually turns into two... or three... or...”I standardized on the CMC PowerMag right after I bought my first Kimber almost 20 years ago... never had a problem, even loading them to 8 rounds. The base is VERY solid... they have been abused for many years and I haven't lost one yet. I'm sure the Wilson is a good mag, too.

I do (in the 47Ds)

ETMs exist because of the issues with the 47Ds. The 47 7 rounders are the some of the best 1911 mags made. The 47Ds are just ok. They work great until they don't. For that money I prefer Tripps or just go to the ETMs.

I’m like the Colt’s a lot! I love carrying them too. Feels good, feels right!
i know right! lolSays the man who owns 1 $300 1911. LMAO
Thanks for the link! helped out alotDude I literally told you that in your other thread and even posted the video of Bill and Ken talking about the evolution of Wilson Combat mags. I am willing to bet you don't even know who Ken is. Again I am not sure if you are serious or not but you literally have no idea what you are talking about.
