I've only done this a few times so far (shooting uspsa since Jan 2011) but they all happened on the same stage. At our last local match I didn't count the number of rounds I put in my mags (shooting a HK usp .45) and put 1 too many in each mag. Got to my first reload on the stage and slid the mag in, just like normal, and there it dropped... grabbed the next one and there it went. So finally I smashed the next one in with some force to make sure it seated and had just enough ammo to finish the stage. Oh and FTE the whole texas star Needless to say I make sure not too overload the mags. Lesson learned , at least til it happens again

Thanks for the feedback guys, I ended up going with the Brazos Edge for sale in the classifieds, my first 2011. Definitely will be set for a while gun wise, now just more practice!

I just got another job to help fund this next purchase so hopefully I'll have enough in a few weeks to make a final decision and hopefully talk him down a tad bit if I don't find a better deal by the. That Brazos looks like its in fantastic condition, if by some miracle its still here in a few weeks I'ma have to check it out. Thanks for the help fellas!

And I just realized I put this in the completely wrong forum! Could a moderator please move it to the appropriate location. Thank you, and sorry!

I've been calling around along the gulf coast to anyone who might carry an STI Edge so I can go handle it before making a final decision and one of the shops I called that no longer sells guns calls his friend who calls me... Anyway he happens to be selling an Edge with less than 1000 rounds through and 3 mags he and his friend tuned with, I think he said, Grams followers in them. Hes selling it because he bought an Apeiro about a week after purchasing the Edge and wants to fund a new open gun also. Oh yes, and the Edge is in 40, same as what I was searching for. Also note, I haven't seen the gun yet to verify any wear and tear on it, if this makes a difference in the decision. So does a STI Edge with < 1000 rounds through it and 3 "tuned" mags sound like a good deal for $2000 or should a go lower, or just disregard this and get a new one from Dawson Precision with their tuned mags for around $2300? I know that was a mouthful, I'm open to any and all criticism given. Thanks for your input!
