Yes I have . It isn't uncommon for the split follower CMC magazines to do that in my experience. There was also some complaints a while back about them damaging aluminum feed ramp on light weight commanders. They would push out far enough to contact the lower part of the feed ramp and then dent or scratch them made out of aluminum. I first started using their shooting star magazines almost 25 years ago and tried some of their power mags maybe 10 years later. I was never really fond of them and found other options to be better for my uses.

My go to magazines are the Wilson I like their 7 round and the newer 8 round with the slightly longer body, EDM maybe? My only problem with Wilson's were my first batch developed weak mag springs after a while and Wilson replaced them. I haven't had that problem since and since their customer service was so good I haven't found a reason to change.

I have also had good results with mil spec 7 round magazines made by several people.
