MM - you ever seen a genuine Colt mag of recent production with no pony?
No, but I do understand that there are some counterfeit mags around with a pony.......don't know how accurate that is & I don't use any new Colt mags either as they are just as expensive & Tripp & Wilson & I prefer those.

Tend to agree......as I said earlier, lot of potential issues & interactions of those elements, magazines are only one. But he did report some mags with the last round popping out.

Very true, also. But one needs to know what to look for as well as setting extractor tension correctly. The extractor impacts more than just extraction. Most don't recognize extractor issues for what they are. An Important part to inspect before taking a new gun to the range to shoot it's initial 5,000 non-stop rounds.
