    The mag (19 rds) springs for my xdm 4.5 in 9mm are weak. I ordered new ones from wolf but they do not fit - specifically, the new mags do not have a notch to secure the bottom plate on the mag. Anyone with experience or ideas please respond, thanks.

    Have you checked Brownells or MidwayUSA? They are good at having such, and easy to deal with if needed to return. Otherwise, Springfield may be the best source unless you want to try something other than OEM.

    Thank y'all. Turns out there are two types of these mags. the earlier ones like man have the detent in the bottom plate and are not as easy to find (of course lol).
