I don't recall seeing how to switch the mag release in the manual... maybe I missed it. Is it an easy thing to do?
Extremely easy. Page 25 on the 11-2007 version of the manual.
Just break out a flat tip and you're all set.
HOW TO
- Field strip the firearm
- The magazine release tension mechanism is located inside the magazine well (#33)
- Move the magazine release spring from the magazine release recess (#34 / #35)
- Move the magazine release halfway out of the frame (#36)
- Hold the magazine release while moving the magazine release spring (big shiny spring rod) around the end of the magazine release button. (#36 / #37)
- Slide the magainze release all the way out of the frame
- Insert the magazine release from the original left/right side of the frame according to your preference (#38)
- Reverse the steps above.
