I loaded up all four 7 round magazines and inserted each one into the gun. Ironically, there was no “double click” on any of them when they were loaded.

I have had that happen before when I inserted a loaded versus unloaded magazine into various pistols. Many times, they react differently.

I did some minor adjustments to to the magazine release as suggested, short of actually removing it from the gun. Ordered a new set of grips from Midway before I remove the current grips (I have broken gen 3 grips before by simply taking them off the gun). Going to wait until I get to the range before I mess around with this any more.

Also, I wanted to let the Forum members know that I got this gun from Dave Ballantyne at the Port Charlotte, Florida gun show last Sunday. What an honor to meet that gentleman.

Thanks for all the advice and comments from the Forum members.
