    1911 tear down

    Have got this down to almost complete, but I am having an issue with the mag release. What I have read says to push mag release in until it can be rotated counterclockwise.
    I get it to the point that the photo shows and that is it. Don't want to gorillia it by any means but I reread and it does say CCW.
    I tried to turn the small flat head screw but that will not budge.
    So,.... wtf am I doing wrong or not right as it were..?

    You push in on the screw and turn it 1/4 turn counter clockwise. The mag release is then pushed out from the other side.
