Similar problem here
I just bought a 9 fs and switched to southpaw mag release. Upon the very first 50 rounds I encountered at least 6 ftf, 4 stove pipe ejections and numerous failures to lock the slide back on empty mags. Read through the info here and switched back the mag released for rights. Fired 100 rounds and no problem. Iam about to send it back to SW. My concern is that if they correct it for southpaws would this eliminate my possiblilities to switch it back to the standard fleet side mag release. I liked the feature to make the change as I groom for familiar with my shooting preferences. I would hate to lose it. Thanks for all the info guys.
