Checkered Wilson Ovsz Mag Release
This looks great, however it took me 6 hours of filing and stoning the part to get it to even slide into the frame. After all of the hand work, I had to cold blue the part. It was a lot of work. I would not buy it again.

fitting required on older model
The extended release and larger pad are excellent, but my late 80s / early 90s 92 required significant fitting to get it installed. As it was, it only seated all the way after a light tap with a mallet. After smoothing the rounded side with a 2000-grit wet sand & light stoning the ledges on the other side I was able to get it to move freely enough that the springs would return it to the correct position. It wasnt super smooth, but that could've been that I didn't do a great job fitting it. It may fit newer models better
