At least for competition they do. I got a Pro Mag magazine for my Beretta and used it at a USPSA match last weekend, hoping to save some $$$. Slide lock doesn’t work on empty, and it even ended up (or maybe began) with a bent spring. I guess it’s either Beretta factory or MecGar from now on.
 
A few lessons. Most are stated above already!

1. Pro Mags are much cheaper than other alternatives because they have less quality and lesser quality control. You can upgrade springs and maybe the follower to get them 100% but by then your cost is possibly the same as or greater than factory or other reliable alternatives.

2. Do your best to plan reloads and don't go to slide lock in USPSA. It happens sometimes (side eyes Texas star in production division)
