M&p extended mag release

[cfnl]

Anyone know if there's anyone in Canada who sells an extended mag release for the m&p pistols?

Or anyone in the us with an export permit?

Preferably the LF arms version, but I'd settle for the catalyst if that's all I can get.

I found when shooting it in the fall, with gloves, I wanted a longer release and one with more "feel".

I put a dab of epoxy on it, and then let it harden while laying on a coffee cup, release side down. the dab hardened in a pointy shape. I filed the tip off and was left with an extended release I could feel through the glove. I used the $1.00 epoxy from the Dollarama.

I have since done several pistols and carbines, and am pleased with the result.

That might actually do.

Great idea

Finally got a chance to do it.

Epoxy putty and a bit of water on my finger tips to shape it.

Works great.

Might flatten it a bit more with a dremel tool and blacken it with a sharpie.

Thanks again for the suggestion!

Wanted to thank you for sharing that epoxy trick Ganderite, I remember you mentioned it awhile back. I just tried it today on the ambi slide release on my M&P9, as a lefty the slide release on the right side of the frame is so flush I find it really hard to operate. The left side sits proud more and is a bit more angular and easy to press. Now the ambi release is so much easier to use, I still have to let it cure and profile it a bit but t's night and day. I used jb quick weld and it set up in 5-10min, and it's pretty much the same black as the rest of the frame.
