Try removing the right grip and check functioning of the hold open with the original magazine. If it operates as it should, it is possible that the original magazine button protrudes ever so slightly more than it should and rubs on the right grip preventing proper operation of the hold open mechanism...
John, a new mag from MecGar solved my hold open problem. I may have gotten that advice in a different thread. This one may have been diverted a bit......
Actioning toggle by hand with an empty mag holds open the toggle 100% of the time now. It is the rounds (Fiocchi) that are not cycling the toggle open enough to lock back on the last round. PPU being shipped now.
