Thank you for mentioning that.
There are countless "grind the nub" threads that come up with a google search on this subject, and nearly all of them mention the ease of obtaining a replacement flag... which may have been the case at the time of writing, but certainly isn't now.
I also appreciate the sentiment about having something that looks like it works, but doesn't (a nubless flag).
I completely removed the flag and lock from my 438 for both of those reasons. I'm awaiting someone offering plugs again, but not really that ate up about it.
