Magazine seating adjustment

Luke,

When the magazine is inserted into the pistol (and empty) it will be pressed on from the holdopen and force the magazine down as you describe. If you remove the holdopen on an empty magazine, the magazines will tend to stay in the up position better. With wear and tolerance differences on the latch notch in the magazine, the overall length tolerance, and the holdopen pressing down on the magazines, they will drop down and appear like it is not seated completely. As far as I know, ther is nothing that can done about this in a low cost manner
