magazine catch.

It is recommended to use the thumb

of the shooting hand to press the

support hand to catch the ejected

magazine.

The magazine catch is reversible and

can be switched to the other side (for

more information, refer to § 5.3 of

this Owner’s Manual).

pistol

from being fired if the magazine has been removed.
