I've got 5 Kimber mags and have never had a problem - have about 100 rounds through each of them. I have the flush 7 round mag that came with my Kimber and 4 KimPro Tac mags (flush as well). Knock on wood, I haven't had the slightest hiccup from any of them.

Never had aproblem before with any Kimber mag , sounds like ammo issue to me . maybe I'm wrong .

I never had any problems with my Kimber mags. It might need cleaning If it is your carry gun I would get Wilson Combat mags. What Kimber is it?
Is it a 3" barrel? 3" 1911's do have cycling problems due to limp wristing. Just be aware of it you may not even know your doing it.

Same as you - nothing but problems with my Kimber mags... I switched to WC mags, and presto! no more problems.

The old Kimber mags were notorious for problems, I still dont use them since I have so many 47Ds.

Im hearing that the newer mags and the KimPro mags are GTG.... but I havent bought a new Kimber since the series II pistols have come out... 2001/2002? So... I have 0 expierence with them.

Feeding problems with the factory mag for my Pro Carry, no problems with the Wilson combat magazines though.

its a full size custom carry 2 with crimson trace grips. and i shoot all of hand guns. my small son has trouble with stove piping sometimes, but no limp wrist here dude.make my living with my hands. after hearing everyones responses and my own experiences, i would say it is wilson combat mags all the way. ammo is good and never malfunctioned out of the wc. thanks for all opinions
