Additional Information
The RockYourGlock reduced pound magazine catch spring for the Glock cuts the magazine catch weight in half for quicker mag drops and less resistance during magazine swaps. The reduced weight spring allows shooters to depress the magazine catch without requiring as much pressure to allow the shooter to stay on target during magazine swaps and increase the speed of the magazine changes. The stock weight magazine catch spring is approximately 5lbs and the RYG reduced pound magazine catch brings the weight down to approximately 2.5lbs. Fits all Glock models.Ratings & Reviews

Makes a huge difference in mag release pressure so you don't have to change your grip as much, but it is not to light that the magazine will fall out even during high stress training drills. All of my glocks have this spring now.

I'm left handed. To do USPSA, I use my left middle finger to hit the mag release, on my Glock 26, which is also my EDC. With the original part, the finger press is so hard that I cover the trigger with my index finger. With this reduced pound mag catch spring that doesn't happen, so i don't get Dairy Queened (DQ). I also do NOT have an issue with accidentally releasing the mag. For me, this product is perfect.

While slightly shorter than the stock catch spring, works quite fine - beats bending the stock spring and aligning it correctly.

Love this little add on, especially if you like the factory size mag release but they’re kind of hard to get a good press on (gen 4). I have it on all my Glocks Gen 4 & 3 alike, feels noticeably better.

This reduced power magazine catch spring makes it much easier to drop a magazine with or without the addition of an extended magazine release. Also it is not too light and I have never experienced an accidential release of a magazine. I put these springs on all my Glocks.

I have smaller hands and needed to reposition my hand for the mag changes. With this spring and the extended mag release I no longer have to do that. Install is simple even for the inexperienced. Significant difference in the force needed to press the mag release.

I injured my thumb badly in an accident and cant activate the mag release on my G20 without shifting the gun considerably or using my oposite hand. This spring still feels solid, no risk of an accidental drop, but much easier to activate. I combined this with the Zev Tech extended mag release. Great tactile feel and solid. The combination solved my problem.

I'm 65 years old, I have fairly small hands and my grip has gotten a lot weaker. Between an extended mag and this 2.5lb spring, shooting has become much more fun. Don't have to reposition my hand to release the mag.

I'm almost 65 years old. Have small hands. I need a little help with the mag release. The spring along with an extended mag release did the trick for me. Great product I would recommend it.

This is my second one. I have on in my g19 and I'm putting one in a g34 I'm building. It is a noticeable difference when dropping a magazine. Easy to install.

These are half the weight of the oem springs, great for competition mag swaps. I would recommend one thats weighted in between oem and this one for a edc pistol though.

A little smaller than the stock spring. Easy less than 5 minute install. Much easier release than with the original spring. Better feel.

A mag catch spring improvement
RichardL

I have very small hands and the stock 5 pound mag release spring is very difficult to press without repositioning my hand on the grip. This really helps to allow faster mag changes. The only suggestion I'd make is that the spring could be even lighter.

Works like a charm. Has to have reduced the release weight by at least 20 to 33 %. Does not make the release pressure too light, so great for ccw and also for people with weak hands. I love it

This spring is definitely lighter than the 5 lb. OEM. Unfortunately at least in my case, perhaps because I grip the gun pretty tight and apparently over the mag release, in fifty rounds of fire the mag dropped twice. I carry my Glocks for personal protection so this was unacceptable. I would like to see a spring available in 4 lbs.

I have carpal tunnel which affects my thumb strength. I tried an extended button, hated it. Put back the stock button and with this spring, mag drops so nicely. It's just perfect, I've had zero issues. I was worried that the button would be too sensitive and drop the mag when I didn't want to. It's not. Very easy to install too.
