First post here. S&W recently replaced my worn mag release on my BG380 so I have the newest version. The magazine still randomly ejects while shooting. The mag engagement is solid so I'm guessing I'm activating the button with my thumb on recoil. My next step appears to be milling down the button a bit. I've re-contacted S&W for advice.

I'd be interested in a metal mag release button since I know this new plastic one will wear out. An alternate mag release would certainly benefit from a lower profile button.

My BG is a great shooting, completely unreliable weapon. This issue is a huge safety problem and should be a recall. I guess I could throw my bulletless gun at my attacker as a last resort.
