Need help removing magazine brake (Shadow)

Recommended Posts

Bought a used SP01 Shadow with heavy main spring installed ( was used with Kadet upper)

Now I am trying to change the main spring back to stock but can't release a magazine brake. I followed multiple instructional videos and it should be pretty straightforward process. Removed grips, took off the bottom pin, but when I depress the mainspring plug on the bottom- the brake is still solidly seated in the bottom slot and doesn't move even under considerable pressure. I tried pressing the plug all the way, half, just a little- same result.

Any tips?
