    I started with a vise but wanted to put pressure on specific spots and the channel locks worked great. I don't care much for the idea of sanding because once its gone its gone for good. In TimtheRef's case none would fit and it seemed justified.

    I was only suggesting dragging some emory cloth through the mag well a time or 2. I would much rather not bend my magazine. That could adversely affect the follower's path of travel.

    I had the same problem; tried all the suggested fixes with some success;took the slide off to see what happens during releases and found that if you release the release button a sea-hair too soon the shoulder on the mag catch acts like a clamp and grips the mag enough to hang up. release spring mighty strong!

    my fix is having my local GS add .060 to height of button and reduce the catch by .010.

    Have you gotten it back, yet? Did that work for you? I had one free dropping mag and one sticking mag. Measured them with some calipers and found the sticking mag to be slightly wider at the top. Squeezed the lips on the sticking one with channel locks ever so slightly, and the sticking magazine dropped like a rock from that time forward.

    Mine fortunately have all dropped without issue but I have helped a few others here using the squeeze method mentioned.
    It usually doesn't take much to get them dropping.

    I also polish and wax my magazines. They come with kind of a coating that isn't slick and almost sticky.
    A good cleaning of the magazines right away helps a bunch.
