About Railed Feed lips
Because of the extra mass of the ammunition stack, the feed lips of a 10-round 1911 magazine take a significant impact when the magazines are dropped or slammed in the gun during a slide lock reload. These repeated impacts can cause your fed lips to spread over time.
Folded, “Railed” feed lips reinforce this critical area without any loss of feed reliability. They are more expensive to manufacture, but testing has shown they are more durable over long-term use.
Railed feed lip ETM magazines are manufactured under license from CMC, LLC.

"Back in 1980, Bill Wilson asked me to test some of his new Wilson-Rogers .45 magazines. He explained that he felt they had solved the problem of cracked feed lips and that their new magazines fed much more reliably than any others on the market. Well, it's 30 years later now and I'm still using some of those original 6 prototype magazines that Bill sent me… Through the years they have proven without a doubt to be the most reliable and durable 1911 magazines on the market. I have personally used specimens from various production runs through the years and have yet to see any quality variation or have one let me down in any way. They are my first and only choice as well as the choice of the elite special forces units I train. I trust my life to a Wilson Combat® pistol and 8-round Wilson magazines; so can you…"
