[QUOTE="druryj, post: 2794381, member: 10465"] I called Colt Customer Service; the guy I spoke with said they do get asked this question about magazines in their lightweight guns occasionally. He said "We're not going to make a lightweight pistol that can't handle regular magazines so just use whatever you like." He did recommend Colt factory mags of course, which if I'm not mistaken, were made by both Metalform and CheckMate. This goes along with what I said in my original post so I'm just not going to worry about it. I have a couple Colt mags, a McCormick, and a Wilson 47D now and the gun shoots fine with all of them. I also field stripped the gun, inserted a mag with a split follower, and looked carefullly at the way the follower sits in relation to the ramp...I can't see how the lower edge of the split follower could touch it, much less hurt it.
