I think heel release is actually pretty awesome for pocket pistols.
Sounds like there is enough interest, PF should consider a "paddle" sub forum.
Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
The button vs paddle vs heel could all be negated with the early non-drop free Glock mags.
But Mericans were more concerned about the second 17 than the first 17....
Thank you Nakatomi Plaza...
I agree. A week ago I decided to see how fast I'd be able to draw out of pocket. A tiny Ruger LCP, a Vedder holster, a very deep pocket with tight entry, hands outside, 7 yards. First round hit the target in a blistering 5 seconds. I think it would be fitting to have a mag release that is conducive to 5 seconds reload as well.
Doesn't read posts longer than two paragraphs.
I mean. That is sort of my usual reload speed anyway.
These are empty then throw at the guy sorts of weapons. Keeping the mag from ejecting in the pocket is the most important aspect of them. Left handed pocket carry is particularly prone to inadvertent, uh, ejection.
I also kind of like the small Beretta button release on the bottom of the grip. The mag drops right into one’s hand.
