P08 Shooter Recoil ejects magazine

Clark, I have been putting those replacement grips made in India on my shooters. After a little carving, filing, sanding and a #000 steel wool buffing they look quite good for a $15 investment. At first I didn't pay attention to the fit around the mag release spring and had a problem with mag retention, just a slight bit of interference was enough to release the mag when firing. The mag seemed to latch, but not when fired. Filing more clearance above the spring cured the problem. Best Regards Joe
