Try working the hell out of that magazine release, both by just pushing it and by actually inserting and removing the magazine 100 times or so.

It may just be a little tight and need wear.

A drop of oil into it couldn't hurt, either.

If it's factory stuff, have Glock take care of it. They will.

NO. This advice is wrong. It's plastic riding in plastic. Do not oil.
May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?

You still don't want to put oil there.

Correct. There are only a couple places on a Glock that need lube. You shouldn't get creative and try to invent new places to lube, it will only cause problems.
