Light peening Slide stop notch

i had something constructive to say...

you can't handle it, what was said....the truth

you worry about the most mundane of things...

better for you to go and buy a sling shot, and give up your

WOW! Are you grumpy today or what, he asked a question which most on here do, you have asked questions but did anybody give you a reply like you gave him, no need to get sarcastic, and say he worries about mundane things, you are the one who was concerned and asked about plastic MSH which I even explained in detail has no stress on them whatsoever like you thought, to many attitudes here lately which most don't need or want just cause they ask something most think are ridiculous.

Exactly. Or never had a hug as a child.

My Ronin (9mm 5") shows some light peening on the slide stop notch. Very slight but it can be felt.

Questions: Is this common? Causes? Is it self limiting? Leave it alone or address? Lightly tap raised material back flat or stone and touch up?

I have had one range session with this one but it was purchased used and it may have been there although I don't think so.

I put a 12# Recoil spring in it: Too much spring causing it to hit the stop too hard on last shot?

It had a few failures to lock on the lighter loads.

I was using the slide stop to release the slide on a new loaded magazine. I know better now and will pull back the slide and release (slingshot?) in the future.

Loads ranged from mils Blaser Brass 124 grain to +P 124 grain Gold dots. All factory loads

Same with my SA Champion. Original slidestop didn't lock back half the time. Replaced it with Wilson Bullet proof. Locked back 100 percent, but it was also peening the notch. Someone suggested light stoning on end of slidestop so it would mate flat when locking back. It helped but I didn't want to overdo it. It's been absolutely reliable ever since.

It has never gotten any worse, I just ignore it and don't fret it.
