Has anyone else had this problem with their 715? Mine was new out of box and the mag release was almost falling off because the left side of the release had a stripped out screw hole..not sure if that one piece can be replaced even?
 
I had the same problem with mine very soon after purchasing. What I did was look at what side I was going to release the magazine with the most and made sure that that side had the screw receiving side of the release. I filled that with crazy glue and put the other side of the release on and put the screw in. It locked up as hard as a rock and I have had no trouble with it for about a year now. If unsure about the glue perhaps a hardening epoxy in the receiving side would work.

Good luck!
 
Okay, went down to the local hobby shop and got a slightly larger diameter screw made for plastic, snugged it right up good as new, or better than new I guess...
