Technically works, so it gets two stars.
by Tim
Strike is hit or miss. This is a miss. You can sneeze on this thing from the left side and you're going to dump the mag.
You know... The left side of your gun that bumps up against your body and kit when slung.
Fluke
by Andrew -
Usually never have issues with SI. I have this ambi mag release on 3 rifles. This particular item I received is completely non functional. As in you couldn’t get it to hold a mag in place by any manner of gunsmithing wizardry or redneck ingenuity. This last one I received flat doesn't work- at all. It appears to be a machining fluke but the button doesn’t work 90%, nor 75% nor 50% of the time… it flat does not work, at all. I understand it is a fluke and unrelated to previous identical items. Just frustrating.
Works but not sold

It works but it seems a little on edge. I can see why some people are complaining - I am concerned about its reliability. However, I am having good luck with it so far! And it works great for a left handed person like me.

this product was easy to install & works just as i would expect. i spent a lot of $ on an ambi lower prior to finding this for a new build & would recommend getting a regular stripped lower, an ambi safety, ambi charging handle, and this mag release and you are good to go at a much lower price
Works great

It works great, locks up really tight. Went from being able to gently insert a loaded mag to needing to slap it to get a lock. Simple to install. Works as intended. Great for ambi

Easy to Install and Use
by Bill P -
Purchased the SI AMBI Mag Release for my range gun as my wife is left handed and thought this would help her. Installation is straight forward and easy, fit, finish and function are great and requires only a light push to release the mag, this is great for range usage. Because it is rather easy to release the mag I don't believe this would be a good choice for duty, operational or heavy training use, as a bump against an obstacle could release the mag.
I Like it.

This is a nice mag release but it will not fit all billet lowers. I had to shim it to make it work with my cheaper Billet lower but it works great with my more expensive lowers witch it was not intended for. So what I did was take some gray gasket making material and cut out a small piece to fit the recessed area and that fixed the issue with binding and let it move freely. It locks the mag into place and holds it well. I know there is a lot of bad reviews that talk about binding and weak holds and I bet they are using cheap billet lowers. You get what you pay for I guess.
P.S. Ignore the bad reviews. It is a good SI product and may need shimming for some billet lowers.
