Man, if it were not for bad luck, I would have no luck at all.
I got my Champion back from SA a week and half ago, and the pistol was working great. I had put about 300 rounds through it with no problems at all (except 2 FTF's caused by Shok-Buff). I was on top of the world.
And then I went to the range today. I put in a full magazine and fired it. I started to load the second mag in and noticed what I thought was a bad scratch on the slide. On closer examination, it was a huge crack that went 1/3 of the way around the slide, just behind the spring tunnel.
Thank goodness I saw it before I fired any more rounds, I would have looked pretty bad with the back half of the slide stuck in my forehead.
Sent it back to SA this afternoon. Here are some pictures.
