    Just cut the extension tongue off the latest factory catches, pretty it up with a file and sandpaper, and you have a flush mag release. End of problem! Tight magazines need dressing a little on the...

    I have never owned one. I am just an old gunsmith that gets to sort out other shooter's problems.
