Review
Package got to me quickly. The installation video was well done and extremely helpful. Made the installation smooth and easy.
Simple to say... IT WORKS!. . I put on my Lcp2 380 and 22lr....mag has not dropped out on its own since . I watched the video on installation and did it my self.
The spring fit perfectly and was easy to install after watching the video.
I did have an occasional magazine drop at the range and I was glad to come across this here at Mcarbo when I was picking up some other items. It does make the mag release a little stiff but it solves the problem of the unintentional mag drop. It is a good upgrade.
Replaced this spring while adding a couple of different parts I purchased here. This spring was a tad more tricky to install. The videos definitely made it doable.
It fixed the problem, no doubt. But it also initially created a problem. In that upon first installation the tension was so much that to reinsert a magazine the release had to be pressed in. I removed and tweaked the spring tension twice to get the right balance. It's a good solution but needs refinement.
I decided to upgrade this part since I was also installing the spring kit and trigger. I have accidentally dropped the mag in my back pocket before, so this should help. The install is a little tricky, but it only took 3 or 4 attempts to get it in place. The videos are great. I would recommend the Universal Spring Tool, it helps to hold the spring let when pushing it in place. I think it made the job easier, and the price was right.
Noticeable difference on the amount of pressure needed to drop the magazine, but not too much. Completely corrected the intermittent magazine drop while firing issue. One more happy customer for me.
When I got my Ruger LCP II, I was so disappointed during the first range test because the magazine kept dropping after every shot or two even though my fingers were nowhere near the mag release button. After some research, I found this site and ordered the new mag release spring. Installed it myself and now the magazine stays put with every shot. I put a 50 round box through it and not one drop. Great product!!!
My new LCP II 380 was dropping the mag every shot. We slow mo’d vid and determined nothing was pushing on the mag release. Bought the spring and used the extremely helpful video to do the install. Took it to the range and no more mag drops. Love the M*Carbo products!!!
Necessary for pocket carry. Once in the pin hole easier to hold in place from the top with a finger then slide a flat blade in from the bottom to manipulate the spring to it's home position.
I should have bought this when I bought my springs set and guide rod...not after! Requires the same break down of pistol as for trigger spring kit. One advantage to buying it later is you are really familiar with LCP dis assembly and reassembly !
The reviews for this product are getting boring at this point because it just works. Mag was falling out under recoil, replaced The mag release spring with the mcarbo spring, shot 100 problem free rounds. It just works.
Mag drops were quite common if I didn’t grip just right. After a very easy install with excellent Mcarbo video, no more mag drops! Release button takes a more deliberate push now. Perfect!
I have a Ruger lcp 2 with the 7 round extended mag an the mag would drop out every 2 to 3 rounds. Thanks to this little spring it runs perfect now.
This was a great improvement over the original. thank you
