What mag catch did you get, Guarder or G&G? Where are you getting stuck on the installation?

You need to take the slide off, then look down the mag well, you can see the vertical bar spring that goes in the mag catch, you need to use a flat head screw driver or something like it, to push the spring/bar over to the right (if the barrel end of the gun is facing away from you). the mag catch has a little slot all the way over to the right, that is where the spring goes in. So you push the spring all the way to the right then pull it outwards towards you to pop it out. Then just put the new one in and use the screwdriver to push the spring/bar back into the new one's slot and make sure you push it all the way over to the left so it is secure. If you are using a Guarder mag catch, you may need to use a small file to file down the top of the spring/bar because the Guarder mag catch slot is often not deep enough.
