My mag release button is unbelievably stiff to where it's nearly impossible to release it single handed -- is there a way to loosen this up or does it need to be removed and cleaned?
Mine is the same way, it’s one of those kinks you got to get used to I guess with this gun.My mag release button is unbelievably stiff to where it's nearly impossible to release it single handed -- is there a way to loosen this up or does it need to be removed and cleaned?
Mine hasn’t loosened up at all. It’s not a big deal to me though. It’s not too difficult to load all 13 rounds in the mag and while it’s tight AF, it’s not THAT hard to insert or drop a mag. And when you really NEED to drop the mag it will be empty anyway. Just gotta realize inserting a full mag requires you to slam it up in there pretty good.Mine loosened up over time. If you’re having a useability issue (ie would affect a tactical reload), give Springfield a call.
