After a Shok Buff was installed on the guide rod, I found that I could no longer "sling shot" the slide to chamber a round after it was locked open.I could depress the slide lock to chamber but could not rack it back.
Found out it was the buffer that limited the backward travel of the slide so it could not ride over the slide lock. YTook the buffer out and noe its OK.
Is this normal? The buffer is quite thick, are there thinner ones?Would it be a good decision to leave the buffer there and forget about "sling shot" and just use the slide lock?
