Yup, call Kimber and have them send you a new slide stop. THEN, take a file to where you see copper marks on the original slide stop, and file it down some, and you will have a spare.

Nice shooting and a nice lookin' Kimber.

Nice shot group. Nice looking Kimber as well.

Nice shooting and nice Kimber.

Great shootin' with that thing. I was going to get the HD, but went with a Valor instead. Looks like I would have been just as happy with the performance of the HD.

Very good shootin'! Kimber will send you a modifed SS, no problem.

Great shooting. Nice to see a picture of a "dirty" Kimber after shooting. Most posts only show them clean and sparkling. They can and do get dirty.

If I call Kimber and ask them about it, do yall think they'll send me a modified slide stop? Its only happened a few times so far, but I'd rather it not happen at all. My Kimber did the same thing with Hydra-Shok. I took a file to mine but I'd think CS would help you out.
