I haven't compared the two but I think it would alter the grip angle.

I have only seen factory ones also, at least for the 4506 guns. Since they were used by LE's for while, surplus mags are around. I bought a group of 4 to save money.

I have yet to do it on any of mine by accident and I usually slingshot my pistols. I have to intentionally try to do it, in order to engage the safety. If you have a good enough hold on the slide, it shouldn't be a problem.

If you want to do a true speed reload, just drop the empty mag with one still in the chamber. Then you don't have to fool around with the slide.

All you would really have to do is make the grip a little shorter. You can already use modded 1911 mags in a 4506, but you get lesser rounds and you have to physically cut the mags

I wish smith would bring back some steel da/sa autos, but now everyone wants polymer.....
