That is really good to know and can probably happen.

I don't have my holster on the right side where the bottom of the pistol is exposed can release the magazine should I press onto the holster/gun.

I have the holster on the left side of the rig and a triple stacker pouch is against the bottom of the pistol magazine. If the magazine does get released, the magazine still can not fall out because the M4 mag pouch is blocking it. I guess in rough play, it can still fall out.

Using a stiffer mag release spring on a pistol could be a good solution for cloth holster users to prevent magazine losses. I don't think cloth holsters are going away, so you could sell stiffer spring kits to pistol owners.

I am now going to put in a stiffer spring as an added prevention. Thanks for the heads up!
