M4 Mag Release

[3GunRookie]

Hi all. I have moved out of California and want to replace the bullet button on my Colt M4. Any thoughts on a good replacement? Stick with original or something else. Thanks very much.

I would look into the raddlock.

far9mm, he said he moved OUT of the PRK, not into. ;) 3GunRookie, go with a standard mag release and enjoy being free.

I would go with the stock COLT Button really easy to change and I am glad you got away from behind enemy Lines :D

Apologies for the "dumb" question, but is all I need the actual exterior release button? Or has big brother put something else in there that I need to account for?

As an aside, Canada has banned any rifle mags holding more than 5 rounds. Handguns are able to hold a max of 10 rounds. The outcome? A innovative company decided produce a "pistol" 10 round, .223 cal mag that fits the AR. Hmmmm

Should just be the button, though it might be easier to find the entire assembly.

Remember to help those left behind enemy lines too.

You may also need a new spring, too. It depends on which bullshit button kit you had. Some have short springs, others use the standard spring. You may also encounter locktite, so a little heat from a soldering iron makes life easy.
