    Default Ruger P345 Mag Problem

    I just purchased a new Ruger P345 the other day and the magazines will not eject when the release latch is pressed. I am having to forcefully pull the mags out. Am I forgetting something like lube or something, or should I return it to the store?

    don't have that problem with mine

    loaded magzines or empty? Sometimes a fully loaded one will stick due to pressure exerted by the rounds on the slide making them difficult to get out initially, try pressing up on the magazine when you press the magazine release if fully loaded.

    Then maybe post of www.rugerforum.com if that doesn't help

    I haven't had any problems with mine.

    Mine MAY be for sale.

    Did you determine what the problem was with the magazines sticking/not ejecting in your Ruger P345? I just bought one and have the same problem.

    Im having the same issue with the two MecGar 17rd magazines I just bought for my Ruger P95PR15. If the magazines are empty, the magazine pops out easily. If it even has one round in it, and the pistol's slide is open, I have to shake the gun 1/2 the time to get the magazine to drop. If the gun's slide is forward, the magazine drops out easy.

    I tried it with the original magazines, and the magazines eject easily with or without rounds in them, pistol open or closed.

    Anybody any ideas?
