Are you referring to the "cocked status indicator guide"? The small hole on the very rear of the slide? This is plastic from SA. Aftermarket they are aluminum I think. I put one in my XDM for the heck of it.

Hmmm, I tried to find the piece I was referring too. It seems it is no longer offered. The stock part must be holding up just fine. LoL. I believe Canyon Creek were the ones offering it. Not sure tho.

When I was reinstalling the retainer clip and the spring guide,,, WHAM........... That was the very first thing that I lost. I swear it evaporated in to thin air. I never found the damn thing. I just ordered the aluminum one.
I'm a LOT more careful now and with the PRP reduced pressure spring set, its a LOT easier to reassemble.

I've not had any issues on mine in 11,000 rounds, but I have heard of them breaking as folks remove or re-install the striker spring assembly.
