I have an older PM9 that I keep as a carry gun for those times when my G26 with optic is too big. One major concern I have with my PM9 is a difficulty to easily rip out the flush 6-round magazine in the event I have a malfunction that causes the magazine to stick in the mag well (such as a failure to eject followed by a double feed).

Should pressing the mag release button not eject the magazine (and this has happened to me during malfunction clearance drills), there may not be enough magazine exposed for me to grab, which makes ripping the magazine out of the gun a more time consuming process.

I recently saw a YT video ...

Kahr PM9 with over 40,000 rds vs a New Kahr PM9 - TheFireArmGuy

that shows a PM9 with half circle cutouts at the base of the frame that would allow for support hand thumb and index finger to pinch the exposed magazine and pull the mag out of the frame. I would attach a photo, but I don't know how, so you will need to watch the video to see what I am talking about.

I would like to take a Dremel tool and do this to my gun, but I wanted to first ask if there was any reason to avoid doing this (other than a lower resale value). I can't imagine it causing any structural weakness, but I've been wrong before and I wanted to ask those who might know before I start something I can't undo.

Thank you.
