Magazine stuck in 1911

[kalister1]

While shooting a match Sunday, I let the gun run dry, (SA1911) so it went to slide lock. I was using Chip McCormack 10 round Magazines. When I SHOVED a new mag in (Just really too hard) it got stuck. It was too far up into the gun and the slide would NOT move forward into battery. I could pull the slide back to lock it open but the mag was in there good.
The Match Director removed the loaded gun from the line and tapped the mag out from the top with a hardwood dowel. The mags do not stick in the gun after I got it home and tried to repeat the problem.
Has anyone had this happen?

Just once. I had a Colt 1991 compact and couldn't find Officer sized mags, so I snagged a full size mag. At the range, I slapped the full size in after slide lock and the top of the magazine shot past the stop. I figured out that maybe I should start with the long mag first until I could get some short mags. I don't think most 1911's really have a stop for the magazines. Does your magazine have a bumper on the bottom?

Yes they do have a plastic bumper. At home with EMPTY mags I gave them a little smack and the bumper stops them. I guess I must have really hit it hard?
I always give my SA-XD mags a good whack when inserting them, As I have had them fall out on me.
