I agree with you.I have always carried my auto-loaders with one in the chamber and a full magazine.I have never had a malfunction related to this method.The purpose of this thread was to seek input on why it only happens with the 7-round mag.As the mag springs are the same for both 7 and 8-round mags,I think the problem is one of spring compression in the 7-rounder.When the Wolff springs arrive,I may do some experimenting with spring length on the original.
