1911 Mags...Attention Miles:)

We've discussed this before and it seems you mentioned a certain Metalform magazine for 1911's being fairly reliable in the 45's. I'm about to stock up on 1911 mags and thought I'd check with you before spending money. In the past I've had Chip McCormic 8 rounders that never gave me issues and then some older ones that Scott Tschirhart gave me and a few of them had weak springs. I've had a few Wilson mags that wouldn't lock the slide open. Had on Tripp Research Cobra mag that was flawless. I've never had a problem with factory Colt, Springfield or Kimber mags so I'm inclined to just go to Springfield and buy more but I thought I'd ask just in case. Of course, anyone else can pipe up if you wish:)
On another note, I'm still strongly considering a Ruger LW Commander 9mm and I'm guessing the 9mm magazines that come with the guns tend to be reliable with ball and JHP ammo?
