nope, all my 1911 mags have a basepad (ie wilsons). yes, even my carry mags. this is one of the reasons.

this also applies to this bounce it out idea since he didn't lock it back either.

I like Todd G. Hell of a shooter and seems to be a good instructor. This idea just seems too... "gamey." Even for the games....
