When I bought my used 1006 it had wooden Hogues on it.

It was REALLY HARD to get the slide off & back on again when I inspected it before I agreed to buy it. I thought it might be a fitting issue with the pistol & decided to buy it in spite of that.

Short story, it turned out that the Hogue wooden grips were causing the whole problem. When you disassemble/assemble the slide on the frame the ejector lever has to be pushed down fully, which forces the draw bar rearward past the edge of the grip frame.

The wooden grips were not trimmed enough to let it freely move, so the bar barely went back enough (& the lever down enough), causing the slide to drag on the lever, rather than moving smoothly & causing the problem.
