Glock Scalloped Mag Release - How to

[@morpheus6d9]

If mags dont drop free wrap your mag with sand paper and insert a few times mags will drop free from now on

[@scottf.3808]

Looks good...

[@OreGear]

+Scott F. Thanks, I appreciate you watching!

[@modernwarriorsystems7347]

You don't have to start with such a rough sanding drum. You can start with the 120 grit. It is PLENTY coarse enough for initial cutting. The 60 grit puts very deep gouges in the polymer that just creates more work for you in the end to polish those out.

[@highspeed9518]

THIS comment 100% true it takes more time but who cares did this on my first glock I used 80 grit and it made deep micro grooves on the trigger guard there's not much material there so it was hard to get them out of there and make it look good 220 is the absolute lowest you should go with polymer guns, another tip is dremel speed lower is better do not go fast it does nothing but melt and cause problems,another is heat control with you soldering iron it determines what the end look is and how crisp it looks get a adjustable iron

[@justinm.791]

Dude don't sell yourself short...that looks great! I'd let you do mine...lol.

[@OreGear]

I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!

[@BIG1ED2]

Nice job

[@shanebeaudrot777]

I agree with another viewers comments, I think you did a great job. I may practice on some AR grips before tackling my g19 frame. Good video.

[@OreGear]

I appreciate it! AR grips are a great place to practice for little to no money.

[@allmotordc5rallmotorfa575]

Bout to do a double undercut, mag cut an where the slide drops are on the frame. Dont no the specific name for it and possibly a finger groove deepening it's a gen 3 26 I've been building. Definitely pmags for the win for practice it takes time and patience and I'm OCD so that helps a lot I do a lot of work for people around my area. Nice job man! Just subscribed✌

[@GB-go6gp]

Wow, your hand has some artistry in it. I first hear of this a couple of days ago & rushed out to my bench to work on my pistol, I couldn't wait to watch another minute of the video. I'll be honest, using my sawzall produced a much different look on my pistol.

[@gagunshooting803]

Looks very good bro...I'm too scared to do it to any of mine. I have done an undercut on one G17 frame. I just don't know if I could trust myself to do the mag release. I have a S&W SD40 VE that has a terrible mag release...It has a bump right there in front of for some​ darn reason and it may be the one I try to do first.

[@shanebeaudrot777]

Looks real good. I wish your video lighting was a little better at times but other than that, excellent tutorial video.

[@OperationRV]

Great Vid! Thanks for sharing, I plan on doing the same to mine.

[@josephrodriguez6709]

wow bro looks really good! I've been watching your stippling vids want to do it on my g17 but I'm scared I might ruin my gun lol

[@OreGear]

I know the feeling. It's one of those things where you have to be really confident before you begin. The best way to build that confidence is to do other work to your gun like undercutting the trigger guard and so on. Start with the easy stuff and work your way up.

[@MrMrsregor]

i saw a utube video of a guy practicing with sheets of plastic. i am going to practice on some unused scrap plastic dewalt cases, then some old unused plastic rifle stocks, and if that goes well, i will stipple two polymer handle machetes, then finally do a nice gun if i have good luck with all the other things. it is worth your time to practice a little !

[@gerard4441]

holy smokes, your hands are tiny 😂😅

[@landonjones8819]

Dude scrape that carbon off your lense

[@libertydoc]

Really impressive! My Glock 20 could use the same mod. Thanks for sharing that.

[@OreGear]

Thanks for watching!

[@hoosierdaddy7534]

sounds like I'm at the dentist getting a cavity filling

[@1badpit100]

Nice job looks great.

[@nomadconcepts]

Just wondering. I’ve been Stippling here and there for friends. And they tell me I should branch out. Do I need a FFL? or am I able to just keep doing I for friends and some others just on the DL? Is it worth getting a FFL ? Would I have to license myself as a LLC or anything for tax purposes etc? Any help or input is appreciated ! Thanks. By the way this video series helped me do my own pistol. Thank you

[@OreGear]

I think a lot of that is going to depend on how much you want to branch out. If you're only going to do it for friends, then I'm not sure it's worth the hassle of getting an FFL. It also depends on your local laws. For example, here in Oregon, if you are even lending a friend your gun, legally you have to do a transfer at an FFL. For that reason when I'm working on friend's guns, they either have to be with me, or I'd have to take my table and camera to their place to film. It's kind of a pain. In that case if I wanted to branch out, it'd be easier for me to get an FFL. As far as the LLC, if you're going to work on the guns of people you don't know, it'd probably be good to get set up as an LLC. That way if they don't like the work you did and they try to sue you, you don't have to give up your personal holdings.

[@msgajhimelret9496]

Get a layer's info..

[@chrisblake1918]

OreGear, Oregon sounds like it has some serious BS Yankee trash going on! Transfer at an FFL to loan a gun to a friend? Damn. NM doesn't have infringement like that! One of the reasons I like it here as much as I do. But on the primary subject, damn fine job you did!

[@pointblankweaponreviews1609]

savio roberts, you will need a FFL to do it as a business. Its a frame modification which will require a class 07 ffl for manufacturing. Trust me unless you can get a successful well known gunsmith shop going itar will close you down with the $2500+ fee a year for just having ur 07 ffl

[@adampark8341]

They all got it from TTI

[@christophergrillo410]

great videos friend! got s handful of good tips from them! I wanted to let you know about the Rainier Arms MARS mag release I put on all my glocks. it's the best mag release I have seen for glocks. it's textured/checkered like stippling, made of aluminium instead of polymer, looks sharp, and is ambi. plus Rainier is semi-local being from Washington... check it out!!

[@OreGear]

+Christopher Grillo I'll definitely look into it.

[@wesleyhoover6402]

Holy shit turn a light on

[@mattkorogi3508]

I concur.. it looks professional IMO

[@msgajhimelret9496]

Very good job,, I looked just for this, I'll be doing my Shockwave grip for finger scallops after some practice....

[@OreGear]

+MSG A J Himel Ret thank you! I appreciate you watching!

[@lonnywhite1927]

ok

[@ginogomez5401]

That looks fantastic bud!

[@OreGear]

+Gino Gomez thank you very much! I appreciate you watching!

[@Mic01851]

Nice

[@RageQuit003]

I like the sprinkles texture. Should do it to the mag release too.

[@OreGear]

+RageQuit003 I've thought about it, it would probable enhance the look of it. Personally I don't think the sprinkles add as much traction as the traditional dot pattern, but I love the way it looks!

[@sudilos1172]

Nice job!

[@OreGear]

Thank you very much!

[@Bobsonomatic]

Just stumbled upon your channel looking for extended mag reviews. Good quality video, clear audio, and you do nice work. Subscribed - keep up the good work.

[@OreGear]

+Bobsonomatic Thanks! I appreciate it! I hope you continue to enjoy my content.

[@MrRobfriv]

what grit sandpaper did you use??? Is that how you got the shine?

[@brandonk5932]

If sending it out is a 10 yours is definitely an 8.5 looks great man.

[@joshuasmith6346]

Who did your stippling?

[@tfr6]

where in Oregon are you from?

[@WesternWild509]

Looks great!

[@_PARADOX_Fy]

💯

[@socomelite1]

Looks good to me. Nice job.

[@OreGear]

+socomelite1 Thanks! I appreciate it!

[@RodThaBod]

Wow , great job. Looks professional done in my opinion.

[@OreGear]

+RodThaBod thank you very much! I appreciate you watching

[@bobyears]

What kind of tip did you use to get that stipple pattern? Looks really good btw.

[@OreGear]

I used a weller soldering iron that has a flat tip similar to a screw driver. This is the exact kit I use and the smaller flat tip will give you this look. www.amazon.com/Weller-SP40NKUS-Watt-Soldering-Black/dp/B00B3SG7F0

[@bobyears]

+OreGear Right on. I've got a good weller also. Just need to find or make one of those tips :)

[@OreGear]

I know Weller sells all the tips on their website, but I'm not well versed enough in the world of soldering to know which to order.

[@nme1605]

How does it drop when the mag is empty?

[@OreGear]

Same as before. Just fine.

[@pappaclutch3266]

How does it drop with the mags full?

[@pappaclutch3266]

...Half full?
