I believe they are available from GotAss.ca - Welcome to the First Ever Ass Contest! if I am worng, type in "gotass" shorts. You should be able to find them.

As far as the slide, yes, do it right. I know you don't want to be out of a slide for a while, but you'll be happier in the long run.

Good pics. I would be on the horn with SA pronto. I am assuming there we no signs of rust when you purchased it? Also, I wonder if it was on the shelf a while and wasn't a recent production gun. But still...
