Jeff, that gap is more than likely due to the cool die issue I mentioned in my
previous post, which prevents the plastic from flowing properly. If you look
inward on the grip panel in that area you will also see that the part is dished in some.
There could be other reasons for this, like injection pressures, but whatever caused it the
part wasn't formed the way it should be and is why I would look into sending them back.
My concern on the flash, or scallops, is what would the part look-like, gap wise,
if they were trimmed off. After all they should'nt be there in the first place and it's
probably only a matter of time before they either break off, or get bent outwards,
which will only speed up the time it takes before they do break off........
