[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 1202715, member: 684"] Well, I'm just guessing here, but chances are, the spring in a 7 rounder has maybe an extra coil in it that the 8 rounders don't have to accomodate the 8th round...right? Therefore, the spring in a 7 rounder is gonna be a little stouter than an 8 rounder...right? Will the 7 rounders seat ok with the slide closed? Or do you hafta download them to 6 rounds? :anyone: If this is the case, why not just buy 8 rounders, fill to capacity and not top off the mag when you charge the pistol? Then, you can do one of two things. Load your other mag(s) to capacity and only change mags when the pistol is dry, hereby eliminating the tactcal reload, or do I download 8 rounders to 7 shots so they will seat properly? Damn! Maybe I oughta not go with a 1911 after all! This ******** sounds like more trouble than it's worth! :ugh2: You don't have this kind of trouble with Glock magazines. :rolleyes2 I'm just sayin'! :wink2: [/QUOTE]
