Utter BS and responsible for more f'd up 1911s than any other hack.

Proper 1911 function with varying bullet profiles is based on magazine release timing.
Not always my observation. I've encountered GI 1911's that had problems with the flatter JHP's regardless of magazine. Barrel throating does aid in feeding of the flatter bullets. But in general, what you said goes for over 90% of pistols/bullets...most times it's the magazine.
