No problem with mags, but if memory serves it came with three.

It does shoot a little low with 115s, but I didn't have any 124s with me at the time.

I removed the mag safety plunger, and the trigger pull is much smoother. It damn near took three hands to get the trigger group back in, but I finally got it.

I have 2 , a Colt 1911 and a Remington Rand 1911A1. The Colt has mismatched date slide and grip, was redone for WWII with new grips, barrel and parkerizing. The RR is correct for a Vietnam and later issue. Worn park but you can still see the milling marks on the sides of the slide. Looks just like one I carried while in the Army back in the 1980s.
