I have been working on some reliability issues on my DW Razorback. I seem to have most of it worked out , but had two mals out of my last 200 rounds. Both were on the last round in the mag. I am thinking that I might need stronger mag springs.
My question is are all the mag springs the same? Would .45 mag springs work in my 10 mm mags? Would Wolff extra power .45 mag springs be the correct spring to order? I have one Metalform and four Cmc mags. Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated.

Just ordered a +10% Delta mag spring 3-pak from Wolff myself. When using full-power loads my Metalform mags would feed the last round, but after firing the slide would occassionally not lock back.
I have run about 250 rounds through the razorback using the new mag springs. No mals so far. Looks like the Wolff delta elite springs did the trick.
The only rub is that the nine round mags are now eight. The eight rounder that I had is still eight. The Wolff spring is just a lot more spring than the oem spring. Still, I'd rather have a reliable pistol, so I am going to stay with this set up.

I ran into a problem similar to your's with my McCormick shooting star mags. Both mags would lock the slide back with one round still in the mag, but moved about half way out. After compairing them to my one factory mag I saw the tab on the follower that lifts the slide lock was to high. I pulled the followers out, opened them up a little and have had zero problems since.
I just found another potential reason for the original problem. I've started to customize my Delta GC and untill now have been working on the frame, fitting a mag well and beaver tail, trigger etc. I pulled the slide apart and found a prior owner had ground the front extractor pad down almost flush with the case rim grove. It was a dead ringer for the ruined one in the Wilson Combat cusomizing video.
