Hi all,
Now that my sights are all dialed-in and I'm getting larger grips, the only other thing on my 97B that needs "improvement" is the magazine release system. I would appreciate knowing if there is a mod to the existing components, or replacement components to improve the ease of release of the magazine.
A little background data: I am right-handed and that is my primary firing/grip/trigger hand; I have very large hands and a long thumb, so I can easily reach the mag release button. There have also been 500+ rounds of ammo put through the gun and I have six magazines, which all release in the same manner (that is, there does not seem to be any one particular mag that is either easier or more difficult).
To eject a magazine, I need to hold the front of the frame/slide with my left hand while pressing the release button with my thumb or index finger on my right hand. Although it doesn't take me over seven or eight seconds to change-out a magazine, I would like to be able to press the button with my right thumb and insert a full mag with my left hand in around two to three seconds.
Thanks to those who have experience with this - the only semi-autos I am used to are the 1911 I used decades ago, and a Beretta M84 I had 30 years ago - both had mag release systems that were easier for me to use/reload.
