Great idea, Don! When the jam happens that way, the mag usually doesn't drop out because the partially displaced round sort of locks it in. Sometimes I've used the finger method if the round isn't that far out. Your dowel/spade is the perfect way to use only two hands, and still avoid a blood blister if something slips and the action decides to "bite." The later model Erma toggle pistols are quite talented at the latter, as well.
