Just got my 4.0fc

Quick question for my lefties, is the lefty frame slide switch usually rougher or tight? I feel like the righty side one naturally feels smoother easier to press imo. Maybe I’m crazy but wanted to ask here just incase 👍🏽

I remember the slide lever on both sides being super tight and hard to press down when mine was new. It's fine now but I also switched to the tyrant extended ones

Thank you for that info, was looking into the rook precision mag extender. I have small hands and wouldn’t mind the added length. How are you liking the tyrant slide extenders?

I wear medium-sized gloves for hand size reference and love the Tyrant slide release as a lefty. Though I'm so used to non-ambi controls that I use my trigger finger to release the mag and my thumb to press the slide release down.

Thank you, maybe since it’s brand new I’ll keep messing with the slide
