You're very welcome! Also to note since you mentioned that, a fully loaded magazine will have the most pressure on the bottom of the slide since the bullet will be pushing up against it and will have little give for the spring in the magazine is fully compressed.

This can be a challenge for anyone and even me with sweaty hands or on a new gun.

So here's some more tips.

1. Try cycling the gun empty. No mag, cleared and safe. And rack the slide over and over again and just "play" with it. You will break the spring in and it will overtime become easier.

2. Try removing a round or more as you work towards your goal. No shame in it at all. Think about this way, if you carry 15 in the mag you can remove 9 before you have a 6 shooter and Wyatt did just fine. ;) God bless you. And God bless your Children and their children.
