I was at the range last week firing my G19. I was having a new but consistent issue with the last round failing to feed. It didn't seem to matter which may or how many rounds I loaded. I did some reading and some people claim that replacing the springs and followers help them with this issue. So I did that tonight and judging by how much stiffer the mags are now I have hope the problem is solved. Also I was really surprised at the variance of the springs that came out of these mags. All except one had 9mm1 followers with really short springs. One looks like it had been upgraded at some point with a 9mm3 and a longer spring. The replacement springs (far right) are still substantially longer.
