Ruger American Compact 45 mag release issue
Feb 19, 2018 · Ruger made the mag release stiff when loaded intentionally to avoid inadvertent release in a combat situation under stress.

Sep 21, 2022 · I bought an American .45 early. A good shooter with any 230 gr I've tried, less so with lighter rounds. Ok - use standard weight rounds. Only problem I had was the extra Ruger mags I bought had short/bad springs. The mags would not lock the slide back on the last round. Ruger replaced them in less than a week and all is good.
