Thread: 10/22 trigger job & recommendations please

I replaced the mag release with an after market version but that can be activated with the sling very easily. Its occurred many times. I've been thinking of going back to an original flush release.

Ah, thank you for that, so my concerns are justified. The lever that is on it already does a good job, mag just drops straight out, no fiddly sticking fingers anywhere. From what I can gather, the older rugers were a "flush" lever, newer ones tend to have a longer lever hanging down - I might be wrong.

Cheers for the info.
