Anyone ever use these and how did they work out. If they work well let me know the one to buy. Ian GCGF sticker in south ga and putting out the word. Hope to get some new members here.

I have never had an issue with Chip McCormick Shooting Star magazines. The 8 round is even the same length as the factory mags.

I bought three Colt branded 8-rd stainless steel mags with flush bottom plates from Midway USA. The markings indicate they're Checkmate mags. Nearly a year and maybe 30 rounds through each (my main handgun is a SA XDM45). No feed problem even once, and I always load 8. Mostly shooting WWB and some Winchester 230gr hollowpoints. They "feel" very smooth when you press down the follower, which is also stainless steel. I know I hear a lot about the big name mags, but I can't imagine them better than these. And the flush bottoms fit nicely. Oh, gun is a Colt XSE 5". In all fairness, it came with black 8-rd Checkmate mags. The followers seem rougher and grittier, in spite of many cleanings and lubing, but they've never failed either.
