polish that feed ramp
A 1911 shouldn’t be malfunctioning due to an unpolished feed ramp
That is what I was thinking but glad an expert agreed. I think it is the magazine since anytime I have had trouble with a 1911 or 1911 based copy it is usually the mag.
Try a wilson combat magazine.

The mags are brand new right? Do you have them loaded to capacity then trying to load the first round? I know you said the second round doesn’t have them issue but have you tried loading the mag 1rd shy of capacity? The spring may just need to get worked a little to allow them to load cleanly from full. Also, the follower moves smoothly at the top of the mag tube? No snags or trying to tilt?

Those are nice but a little rich for my blood. I have always had good luck with Mecgar mags.

OK I had a chance to mess with them some more. With a tiny bit of file work the 2 original mags will now load the first round by using the slide release. I found a few burs under the feed lips. The Mecgar mag I bought works perfect. When I can sell more stuff I will probably buy a few more good mags instead of grips or holsters.
i love my mecgars too
