i dont like the SA factory mags. i normally use Kimber mags, and on occasion Chip McCormick SS. no probs with those.

i had good luck with my WC 47Ds, I had a few that wouldnt lock the slide back. I havent tried any other mags cuz of the metal followers supposedly chew up the alloy frames or something like that, so I stick with poly followers.

I've had poor luck with Chip McCormick mags, but that was a long time ago. I currently run Wilson 47D's in my Springfield Operator with no issues. A friend of mine had a two-tone Champion for awhile and it ran great using Wilson mags.

My Champion likes and works well with 8 round CMC's but doesn't like or work very well with Wilson's. Go figure!

I use McCormick 8rd Power mags, seem to work just fine. I think its the extra spring power that helps. Wilsons wouldnt work.

I have used both springfield and Mec-Gar in both my springfield G-I and my IPSC gun built from parts. Both 8 and 10 round mags work great

The problem with the CHAMPION is the spring weight. 22-24# is going to make that 4" slide come flying into battery FAST!. So, to solve this problem, you have to run a very strong mag spring.
My Champion runs a 24# recoil spring and 12# magazine springs. it's best to stick with 7rd mags, as they will lock the slide back more reliably. |
