Got my 8th new mag from Big Green today.  It feels funky when I cycle
rounds through the pistol., kind of clunky.  I will try to get out to the range tomorrow,
and check it out.   If it is not too cold!
I am starting to believe that the R51 is even more picky than 1911s when it
comes to magazines.

Hope your new mag works better than the previous ones for you Blackie. Keep us posted!

I noticed the same with my two mags. I thought it was my imagination but one seems to feed smoother than the other when hand cycling. Maybe we need to measure the catch/release notches to see if there is a variation in depth where the mags lock into the pistol.
