I believe PSA's plan was to improve that situation but they over engineered a bit.. The relief around the mag release would have solved the problem but I think they redesigned the mag release forcing you to push it farther into the pistol to release the mag or the wire is somehow stiffer. I've measured the diameter of the wire and it's the same as factory glock.Gen 3 style extended Glock mag releases on a defensive pistol are a bad idea. Makes the pistol a lot more prone to unintended mag releases while handling in a defensive encounter.
It can be a problem on Gen 3 Glocks but it can be easily solved by a good holster design. Holster designers have figured it out how to shield the safety while still allowing you to remove the mag with the gun in the holster.. As always YYMV
