I started shooting in 2018 & shoot about 5,000 rounds per year. (I really like it!) I am right handed like most people out there. I also got into the gun buying craze and have every size of pistol X2 and more. I shoot IDPA & ASI at my local gun club. I started at the bottom of the pack of about 70 shooters and have climbed my way up to the middle of the pack. I just got back my ported P10F but have only put a couple of hundred rounds through it being winter in the Northland. I have had mags fall out of my Sprinfield XDM 4.5" 9mm, CZ P10C, and Glock 20 pistols due to my support hand pushing too hard against the area of the mag release button. Mags were also hard to release because of my short fingers & thumb, & with my P365, P365XL, Shield Plus 3.1" & 4", the palm of my hand was always in the way when the mags dropped out. I then moved the mag release over to the right side (Lefty side) to see if these 2 problems could be resolved. AND THEY WERE! No more accidental mag drops, and mag change times were noticeably better. I think this would work for a Lefty but in reverse keeping the mag release on the Left side of the pistol. IMO guns leave the factory Lefty friendly, at least with the mag release.

Thank you for your comment. I totally agree-keeping the mag release on the left side will and does work great for lefties! It is like guns are built lefty-friendly straight from the factory in that way. I keep all my mag releases on the left side, partly because it feels natural and just works for me, and partly because I’m the only Southpaw in my family, so I’ve always adapted things to fit the family.
