Is a “bullet button” related to “the thing that goes up”??? I thought I was reasonably informed on firearms terminology but those two just escape me. Can somebody please translate?

A “bullet button” is a magazine release that uses the tip of a bullet (instead of your fingertip) to release the magazine. It gets around California’s ban on detachable magazines because it requires a “tool.”

I have seen an alternative that works differently, and will get around this ban.
