Nice Replacement

I replaced my grips on my M9A3 with aluminum and the oversized catch wouldn't depress. I really like the grips so I got this extended one. It fits. I like the extended smaller button on this one rather than the oversized. It didn't need any fitting. I scuffed it up a little when putting it in and I thought it had went rather smoothly. Maybe the finish isn't too durable. It worked well functionally. The texture is really aggressive, I guess you could call it? You might see some skin cells left in there after using it.

works great

I have installed this mag release on a 23 year old INOX manufactured in Italy and a new M9 compact. They required no fitting and dropped in. Before I did the install I carefully watched the Brownells video on YouTube, which was a big help.

Better than factory mag release.

I have bought two of these over the past year. They both dropped in on a 92G and 92A1. Great function, but require a little break in. Mag release is positive and quick without fear of inadvertent release. Lock up is positive as well.
