Wonder if the practice of oiling the magazines to prevent jams was taught before the introduction of the 'anti-tilt' follower??

Before the ATF was introduced some magazines did have a tendency to allow the rounds to tilt in the magazine causing mis-feeds and a little oil would help alleviate the tilting problem.

These days I just disassemble my mags and wipe the internals down with an oily cloth cuz I ditched the ones that weren't ant-tilt.

The SS magazines I own are Teflon coated on the inside.
