Additionally, as mentioned above, magazines are a big potential issue. even my Dan Wesson mags will not lock the slide back (I'v sent many back to DW and they're all the same). But, with Wilson mags, my Vbob will eat any type of ammo and I've only had one failure in >>3k rounds.
Agreed, I use Wilson Combat mags in my VBOB as well. Never had them fail to fire.

The gun is amazing.
