So did I catch that your 1911 is a Ruger? Send it to them and give them the opportunity to make it right.
They will probably ask him why he doesn't use the mags they sent with it.
I do use the magazines that come with it on the range. The Wilson 47 and 47D are the gold standard in 1911 magazines.
Wilsons, chip McCormick, etc are supposed to be the finest 1911 mags made.

Police Departments all across the country DON'T issue 1911's. The 1911 has never been widely issued even before the proliferation of other designs. An exception is departments issuing them to SWAT or other special units within them.
IMO the best thing to do would be to trade the Ruger on something you want. I haven't heard of many issues with the Ruger 1911's but Ruger itself is notorious for recalls. I've still got a few Rugers, but for the most part I avoid them anymore.
