If I "limp wrist" the gun, the magazine will pop out after the last shot every time. If I grip the gun really firm, the mag stays in place after the last shot every time. i don't think it should pop out at all.

I am using the Aluminum Extended Mag Release (6 months old) from Glockstore.com on my gun and haven't had this problem before. The gun is 3 years old.

How old is your gun? The magazine release itself might be worn out perhaps?

Have another person shoot your gun with the same set up. That will remove the variable. 90% of the time is a user error rather than an equipment issue.

Don't limp-wrist.

Don't limp-wrist.

I had to ask if anyone has had the problem. I haven't seen this problem before today, and it happened almost 10 times.

Perhaps the spring isn't sitting in the mag release properly?

If your mag catch spring was properly placed into the aftermarket mag catch, my bet would be on the aftermarket part. It may not be mating into your magazine properly. It could also be your magazines themselves.

i might try the factory extended mag release if it continues. thanx!

Your issue is using aftermarket parts.... If there was no issue before you switched out the stock part and substituted in a non GLOCK made part and started to have problems..... Well there is your problem and solution.

aluminum mag release is the culprit. I've used for awhile but when the problem popped up it was consistently failing with every magazine. I changed it out and deliberately
'limp wristed' the gun to try to get it to pop out and it wouldn't fail once. oh, well.

Try this one. It is longer than the standard Glock OEM but shorter than the extended. I have them on all my Glocks and find them to be perfect. Never had a problem with them.

Thanks, I will probably go with the Glock factory extended. They are Spec. and only $5.
