[QUOTE="Z71, post: 2795802, member: 26805"] The standard split-follower mags can indeed leave marks/dings on an alloy feedramp. However there are lots of available mags that have modern followers that won't ding the feedramps. The old style split followers can slip forward with the last round and touch your alloy ramp. Alloy frame-safe followers have an enclosed front that's not able to slip forward. The early 'Chip McCormick/Shooting star followers can do the same damage as a split follower. Newer McCormick followers(like Kimber mags use) have a enclosed front these days. I imagine about any plastic follower mag would be safe as well as any mag with a follower having a front leg so it can't slide forward should be fine too. [/QUOTE]
