Thank you so much for all the help.
The Gen 3 slide stop has a bump welded on the right side lever. It gives you a better audible and tactile reset on the trigger. It's also made stronger than the Gen 1 and Gen 2. Gen 1 has no bump, Gen 2 has a bump that was pressed in. You can easily check to see if yours is a Gen 3 or not without removing it. Even though yours is a '14 model, S&W is known to use old parts in these guns.
