 I'm a lefty, so it would be nice if I could release the magazine with my left thumb.  Right now I swap hands to change out the magazines.  Is it possible to move the magazine release to the right side on a Shadow?  Do I need to order some parts?

Barbicatter,

I was thinking of doing the same thing switch the release. I saw a screw that looked like the one to remove but do not want to see springs flying. Was it easy, did you have to corrall the springs to put them back in or easily placed?

Thanks, E

I was reluctant to do it myself especial when it is brand spanking new.   I took to my local fun shop.  It took him 3 minutes tops and he didn't charge me a dime.   So it can't be difficult.   

I was playing with last night, trying to develop some muscle memory.  Works great.   Much better than switching hands to load a magazine.
