I've got four ss 12 rd mags from Springfield and they all work flawlessly they literally fall like a sack of rocks.

Ok, to clear it up:

My problem with the new 12 rd. mag is that it wouldn't drop free. SA is going to replace it for me.

My problem with the old 10 rd. mags is that they don't feed reliably. I need advice on THIS issue, if y'all have any. I'd much appreciate anything that might help. Otherwise, I'll just have to go buy more mags which, while it's fun, isn't the best option because I'd rather save money for sights, sear, and guide rod upgrades.

Joe: look at the feed lips on the top of the mag I had a couple that were bent out slightly and the rounds would not feed at all. I adjusted them in tomatch another mag that worked just fine and problem was solved, that was 2 years ago and their still running fine. Look closely as it isnt much I measured mine with a steel scale and they were about .125 off.
