I just took my new RXM to the range today. For some reason this feels like my softest shooting 9mm.  I came home to clean it and noticed the slide release spring sticking up.  Is this normal?  I tried looking at the manual but it seems inconclusive.  Can somebody please verify if this is normal.  Thanks!

I really appreciate the quick response.  I thought I was missing something.  Thank you!

Hmmm... I pulled the slide off my RXM and it was the same. Makes sense the spring would be "up" until disengaged.

I'm sure I've seen the same on actual Glocks in the past. It's been awhile since I changed out a slide release or otherwise paid attention to notice it.
