    I like Chip McCormick Shooting Stars. I have some Wilson's. I have no problem with them but neither do I think they are vastly superior to others.

    I have never had an issue with a Colt mag, but I really like Wilson Combat, and have never had an issue with my Chip McCormick Power Mag. Plan to on sticking with Wilson in the future unless I get a deal on McCormick Mags.

    Thanks fella's for your answers!

    Is stainless steel better?

    Jimmy

    I have both and I like the stainless better if for nothing other than the weight.

    McCormack 8 and 10 rd. mags.... Wilson combat.
    I have 4 Kimbers in 8 Rd. that are reliable and never an issue with Colt pieces.
