Kimbers and aftermarket mags, issues?
I bought two brand new Chip McCormick Custom mags for the Custom CDP today, been meaning to get extras for a while now. Loaded one up and dropped it into the gun and attempted to chamber a round .. nada. Damn thing rams the bullet into the back bottom of the barrel.
So is it just these or are Kimbers 'finicky' about mags? If so what brands should I be looking for, seems no one has actual Kimber mags in stock any more.

Re: Kimbers and aftermarket mags, issues?
Here you go DC dalton:

I don't own a Kimber, but I've never had a problem with ACT-mags.
They are also branded as Novak and Nighthawk BTW.
I have a few Wilson 47D's that are well built as well.
I'm actually curious to try a few of the C-products mags, as they just got into the 1911 mag game and I've had great luck with their AR mags.

Try different ammo as well as mags. I like Wilson 47D's and ETM's

Re: Kimbers and aftermarket mags, issues?
I use Wilson Combats in my Kimber, they run 100%
I found both triggers to be terrible to me so the triggers are on a scale to me.. The Glock was a crisper suck and the XD was a more mushy suck. They are in the same family, SR9 (heavy suck), Glock (crisp heavy suck), XD( lighter mushy suck), M&P(heavy mushy suck).
