Anyone have a fix for a weak magazine release?
« on: December 21, 2014, 10:48:53 PM »
My PO7 releases the magazine from multiple holsters, including a Kydex. Sent in to CZ with the reply "no problem found, meets specifications". In my book it now has become a bedside piece. Anyone modified these with stronger springs or have a fix? Thoroughly disappointed in this design aspect of this beautiful hand gun.  No sense in reinventing the wheel

Does it happen with all yours magazines?

My magazine release is stout so   I have to give it a good push to work.  Magazines pop out with some force.

The holster should be molded so that there is clearance where the mag release is located.  Not the pistol's fault.

Multiple factory mags and multiple holsters, yes there is clearance in 4 different holsters. IMOP, I am not shooting bowling pins, it is weak. If I cannot carry it reliably it is not going to be carried.

I guess you could do when I had similar problem with my 2022. I ground the mag release button down a ?little so it did not protrude as much. A lttle cold blue and the problem was solved
