Yours had a plastic magazine release??? The only plastic I see is the magazine bottom, which looks like wood. When the gun had the Mitchell name on it, several magazines demonstrated that the parts would interchange between the stainless and older Lugers. For some reason Stoeger made several parts larger, I suppose to prevent this sort of thing. I'm not sure why they used the waffle pattern instead of checkering, but I would guess it has to do with investment casting of the parts...
