OPENB Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 The 3 ETMs that came with my PM9 work fine but I prefer Dawsons for the built in ramp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Where on the tube would I squeeze? A few of my Dawson mags have lips that are a little more open than others. Do I carefully squeeze at the top of the tube in that area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Also, this is not the last or top bullet feeding.....what's happening is the bullets don't move up in the mag when I fire a round. This is happening randomly on the 4 mags in question. They will be stuck about 1/2" down. Once I drop the mag and tap it a few times it usually gets them moving up. This is making me think the issue is the bullets are too long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Hello: Yes as I stated above the overall length is too long. You will have to shorten them in the 1.140" range. I am playing with the same issues with my Dawson mags. I tried them with 10mm followers and that did not work at all. You need the spacer and the follower together to make them work. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 Quick update...the new style ETM cycle perfectly with the slide locking back every time. Also, loading a full mag with the slide locked back and in the forward position is not a problem at all. I like them a lot and with the warranty they have I may just run them and use the Dawson as range mags until I get them to run right or get the right load length for them. This is all with 147 factory loads so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtecpaoche Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Nice, it sounds like WIlson may have fixed the issues with their ETM 9mm mags with the new design. I'll have to let my buddy know as he was waiting for someone to try it first before he went and purchased them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Update, the ETMS are flawless! Have shot two matches and about 1,000 range rounds through them. With the extended base pad it makes reloads easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConcervativeFan Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 I've never seen mags so sensitive as the Dan Wesson junk I took them apart one time to clean and they don't work right at all. JUNK!!! after all the money we spend on that pistol it should be better made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safarihunter Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 While I have several brands of magazines, Metalform seems to be the most consistent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
