Has anyone had a Dagger with an exceptionally tight magwell?  

I finally played with a compact FDE frame I picked up several months ago.  Holy crap!  The magwell is tight as hell with an empty Gen5 brand new OEM Glock magazine!  I really had to push it all the way in.  

Ejecting?  it mocked me no matter how far I pressed the magazine release.  I finally had to really pull to pull it out.  

A fully loaded 17rd OEM Glock magazine SLOWLY dropped out.

I'm not new to Daggers or to Glocks.  I've gone back all the way to two Gen1 17s and Gen2s in 17, 19, 22 & 23 with multiple NFML magazines and I never had one that had to be physically pulled out like this one.  

I have some G19 magazines on the way from the EE that I'll test.  I'll probably take this magazine apart to check the body's fit in my S frame when I have time.  

It did eject just fine from my Combat Armory frame.

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks.

I have another batch of 19 magazines arriving soon. I'll run all those in it and see what's up.  

My original compact frame from right after the launch and the other S frame I bought with this one poop out magazines with authority, so this took me by surprise.

I'll update the thread as well.

PM enroute in a few minutes.  Used Gen4 magazines are hanging up as well.  They drop free if I shake it vigorously, but I'm not that athletic

I even took the magazine release out completely and it still start slowing down with 1 in left to full insertion.
