I just got a used PPK/s and I'm having a problem.

The magazine is popping out after almost every round. I have tried to find the cause myself but I am not familiar to this platform.

The magazine appears to be fine, nothing is bent out of shape where it hooks up with the magazine catch. So, I am thinking the problem is with the magazine catch. Has anyone ever heard of a magazine catch getting worn down? Possibly a bad spring? I tried to take the magazine catch out but I cannot figure out how to do it.

If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions I would greatly appreciate any input. Thanks in advanced.

Do yourself a favor and before you try to strip anything try it with another mag. Preferably factory mags. Mec-Gar.

That's good advice. At worst, you'll have 2 good magazines.

I had my mag catch out once. You need to remove the trigger guard if I recall correctly. The post and spring that provide pressure also keep the release captive.
