Default 469 magazine ejecting issue.

I picked up a Model 469 and while at the range the magazines began to pop out after each shot. If I kept my little finger below the base plate it worked fine but not an ideal way to shoot it. I do believe they are factory magazines but am not certain. Any thoughts from the pros here?

There would seem to be a problem with the magazine catch and/or spring. Did it happen with both magazines?

The mag release button is adjustable, may be as simple as that or a broken spring. Search our site.
