Abstract
A pistol includes a pistol grip; an elongated well provided in the pistol grip for receiving a magazine insertable into the well from below; a trigger guard carried by the pistol grip and having a region forming a transition to the pistol grip; and a manually engageable magazine release catch disposed in the transition region and extending into the well. The magazine release catch has a normal position for locking the magazine when disposed in the well and a manually depressed position for releasing the magazine when disposed in the well. The magazine release catch further has a manual engagement face exposed in the transition region and has, in a side view of the pistol, a triangular shape having three rounded corners. One of the corners is oriented in a forward direction of the pistol and the side of the triangular shape facing the forward-oriented corner extends approximately parallel to the length of the well.
