Abstract: A device and method for unlocking the magazine of a firearm employing a steel catch, bullet button or other in and out metal magazine locking mechanism is shown. The device comprises a magnet affixed to a wristband, ring or glove worn preferably on the underside of the hand or wrist of the non-primary arm. While the primary hand is gripping the firearm, the user swipes the area of the non-primary hand that contains the magnet across the magazine catch, bullet button or other metal in and out metal magazine locking mechanism, whereby the magnet temporarily attaches to the magazine catch to pull the in and out metal magazine locking mechanism away from and/or out of the magazine well so that the magazine slides out from the magazine well. Thereafter, the non-primary hand can insert another magazine into the now empty magazine well.
