Does anyone else notice this?

I’ve noticed on my 17 gen 5 the slide stop has flattened out quite a bit and the slide closes with almost no effort and will also drop on a loaded mag without releasing


I’ve ordered a replacement however I’m wondering if I’m the only one?

If anyone with a decent round count on there gen 5 could post a photo of there’s I’d appreciate it

Yeah photo would help with this, as I am not sure where you are talking about. The area of the slide stop that moves up into the notch on the slide with an empty magazine is flat already.

The 5th gen slide lock is thicker and a heavier than previous models. I haven't heard of this happening with olders models.

Maybe try a little farther away?

With my iPhone, for closeups, I move it in and out. When the little yellow box shows up, I move it so the closeup piece is in the box. A lot of times, more light helps with focusing.
