Hmm, I have not heard this before. Did the dealer tell you this or did you try it yourself?

That's a deal breaker right there. I don't want another gun that requires proprietary mags.

The only additional 1911 I'm looking for at the moment is a Colt LW Commander XSE in the same finish as my LW Government XSE, but at least at the moment they don't make one.
