Abstract
The inventive technology describe herein employs a removal assist mechanism for a firearm magazine that eliminates hang-ups and gravitational restrictions and allows consistent, reliable, safe, and dependable magazine ejection from a firearm. This removal assist mechanism is for a firearm having a magazine release actuator. The embodiment of the overall mechanism includes a biasing mechanism connected to the magazine and which extends from the magazine to contact a part of a firearm containing the magazine, wherein the biasing mechanism biases against the firearm part when the magazine is inserted into the firearm and remains under resistive force while the magazine is retained therein, until released by the magazine release actuator whereupon releasing the biasing mechanism assists in ejection of the magazine.
