    The only downside to the Wilson acquisition of CMC I've noticed is the mag parts availability. You used to be able to order their various follower's and springs, but at least at their on-line store,...

    There are folks that like and use 10 round, .45 Auto, 1911 mags, but I consider them novelty items. My belief is if you need a .45 Auto shooter with more than 8 rounds in a mag, the single stack...

    The Ed Brown mag is a CheckMate product. The follower is the CheckMate Patented Follower (CMF).

    I used to recommend if folks liked the Ed Brown mag to get them with the CheckMate brand from Top...

    If Colt included 8 rounders with that gun, they probably came with the Devel/Shooting Star followers, though I'm not sure those were CMC mags, or pieced together by Colt or some other supplier.
  5. It is only the Devel/Shooting Star follower,...

    It is only the Devel/Shooting Star follower, commonly used in the Chip McCormick (CMC) line-up of mags, that has that reputation. It was also an issue, though less of a problem, for the Ruger...

    I don't know much about 10 rounders, but I would be surprised if CMC 10 rounders had GI feed lips. If they did have GI feed lips, I would expect rounds from GI feed lips to normally have rounds hit...

    This reminds me of what seems to be the only downside of Wilson's acquisition of CMC and that is they don't have a full listing of replacement parts for the CMC mags that used to be offered at the...

    They do, but they aren't an extended tube like the ETM's. The PowerMag has the same tube length as the 47D. The CMC RPM mags are extended tube mags and they have a flared base pad.

    Let me clarify - Jason Burton doesn't say to use wadcutter feed lipped mags and neither does Hilton Yam. However, Jason Burton has recommended Wilson 47's and Hilton Yam has recommended CMC...

    I always recommend to folks that if they like a particular CheckMate mag, buy it with the CheckMate stamp and not the Colt or Kimber stamp unless you can see the mag in person.

    The usual response on forums when folks read those "how i did it" articles is they dump their Wilson mags because "they by-pass controlled round feed", and buy CMC or Tripp mags.

    They do flare out because they wrap around the mag tube rather than just attach to the bottom of the mag like 47 pad. It covers up the extra tube length that will stick out of the bottom of the mag...

    The 47D is the classic hot button for the Wilson line-up. Some love them and some hate them.

    The thing to understand is that the 47D is not the best mag in the Wilson line-up. It may work for...

    I'll point out that is an "English Bulldog", which would seem inappropriate.

    Yeah, but it wasn't intentional industrial level farming of pythons. It was just "Bob" or "Dwayne" dropping off their over grown pet in the Everglades at the onesie/twosie level.

    I also read that article. Just what we need is some place doing industrial level python farming and then having them escape their pens. Instead of the "pig bomb" you'd have the "python bomb".
