It looks to me like using a metal guide rod is a bad idea, as they apparently chew away the plastic tabs during recoil. I was just talking about a slight change in recent-production SD frames in another thread, so I wonder if S&W has addressed this issue as well? I might have to go back to the gun shop that has the new SD9VE and ask them if I can quickly field-strip it and look inside. You would think with all the SW and SD pistols Smith & Wesson has sold if this was a design flaw they'd have noticed it by now.
