Glad I went back and read this cause I picked up the 43X MOS yesterday was just about to buy the Shield mags but will certainly look at the other ones before buying.

I wonder if adding some graphite would mitigate this (possible) issue?
Metal on polymer, if both smooth, IMHO, should not be of a concern. Especially when it's only moving ~5/16", in the same directions, at a slow rate of speed. Granted, if it were a SUPER-FAST motion that actually built-up friction, then yeah, it makes sense, as the polymer would heat up and fail/warp before the metal...
The angle of travel has essentially no resistance, minus the spring. As long as a metal magazine catch is free of burrs and if properly finished/machined, I just don't comprehend how this could be a problem.
One of my 43's are running Shield mags & a metal catch. Another is with OEM release/mags. I don't have enough time on the modified one to have a (possible) issue develop.
I too question that... but in theory over a long enough timeline I'm certain with metal on polymer, the metal would win. I'd rather ruin a mag, than the gun's polymer handle.
That said, if I get the same increased round capacity of 15 with a Micro Dagger mag featuring a polymer face, making polymer on polymer contact, especially without having to spend more money for a metal mag catch, I'm going that route.
