I have had success with pretty much any mag except some factory mags.

The main thing I look for is a good spring and a good follower. Wilson springs and followers are typically the best. I have these spring-and-follower kits in all 3 of my Checkmate 10 round mags. I like the Checkmates but the factory spring was so weak that after a few 100 rounds it wouldn't lock the slide open. That's a big no-no for me.

But I've found Wilson and CMC to be the best.

Checkmate


My Valor came with one of those but it has acted finicky on occasion. What would you recommend to fix the problem, meaning what is the first thing to address/rule out?
