boudreux Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Can someone tell me how to remove the plastic insert on the Dawson magwell? I tried installing it on my Glock as one piece but can't push it up far enough to get the screw in. I don't see an easy way to remove the insert without prying it off. Pictures or videos would be appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmca Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I pry the insert out, there's a small notch in the side of the insert, be careful, the insert is a little brittle. Start the insert out in the notch and work your way around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Is the Glock version different than 2011? My 2011 one just pry apart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boudreux Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Yea I tried that on my last one and it cracked. Dawson says to push down and forward and it will scoop out. Can't figure that one out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottieShootz Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Thats weird, I've always just put a small flat head screw driver in and twisted to have it pop out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnote Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) I've cracked one, brittle batch I guess, not to mention my magwell does not have the side notch.... Edited March 24, 2016 by cnote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmca Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I cracked one also. Might have to do with cold temperature. My notches are in the insert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boudreux Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 Got it figured out today. Decided to just try and pop it off even though the folks at Dawson said do not do that. It popped right off. The previous one I had seemed much more difficult than this one. Thanks for all the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtchevy841 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 That's what I do with mine from Dawson is just pop it off real quick. Pop off easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seadog_99 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I usually have to pry mine off. Good to know I may want a spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
