I picked up an aftermarket mag release while waiting for the tactical release that 45K20E4 is making. It is not an ASI release.
It looks pretty good . When I went to install the spring it would not install. I had to dremel out a little more to get the spring in. After I installed it I grabbed some of the mag I have. I have somr Ruger and aftermarket mags. I am only having issues with the factory 10 round. The body of the mag is a tad wider and the mag won't insert. It hits on the release. The Pro Mag 10 round mag inserts fine. The other larger capacity mags I have work fine. I don't have any factory mags larger than 10 rounds.
So I am not sure if I will keep it installed or not. It is an ebay bought release. Not the ones with the paddle on them. It cost $14.
Moral of this story. Aftermarket is not always best. It might work, but not as intended. Oh well I guess.
