I have had no problems with mag release until now.

I didn't have to strip an airsoft 1911 down to sear/disconnector level, but I did do it on a real steel 1911, and I hear that airsoft version is very close. I can take it apart & put together, just don't have any diagnostic skills.

Update: took it apart, and found no issues with sear/disconnector/hammer/etc. The safety plunger had made a slight dent in the thumb safety, that's why it wasn't working, so totally unrelated to the dropping mag issue.

The mag catch looks slightly worn at the spot where the mag is engaged, I will try to find a replacement locally, to save the shipping time. I still have my newest mag working, but the older two are dropping. If I press against the mag catch on the right side of the frame, mags stay put.

The new valves make the blow-back really hard, should I get a 150% recoil spring?
