John Galt Speaking.
Just picked up a Glock 41 MOS for USPSA Multigun Heavy Metal division, since you can use double stacks, now.
The mags drop free if there's any rounds left in the mag, but if it's completely empty, it occasionally won't drop free; luckily, I figured out why: the slide stop is loose, and sometimes, it drops to the SIDE of the follower, holding the magazine in place if you press the mag release (see photos.) You can "flick" it out or pull a little and it will drop out, but still a pain for a competition gun.
I'm not an experienced Glock guy; is this common? Could the slide stop be out of spec? Is there a known fix for this or just accept that that's the way it is if I run dry?
Are all Glock trigger shoes the same? Could SSVI have sent me the wrong trigger shoe?
Drops free...
Doesn't drop free...
