Gotta have a reliable mag, otherwise the most custom polished and perfectly feeding pistol is worth exactly diddley. I got a couple of those cheap "GI"-style mags with my Taurus, they're complete junk. They came with the floorplates impact welded, and they were junk metal. The first one popped the floorplate completely off and ended up dumping a full mag all over the ground, and the second one the floorplate bent down at the toe after I dropped it during a speed reload. I'm waiting for it to blow out like the first did, the welds looks stressed. Did your pistol come with a cheapo mag?

Great to hear that she digested everything no problems!
