Interesting ... this is the second report in a month of this happening, the end of the buffer tube apparently breaking where the cut for the locking pin ends. I wonder how much if this is caused by slamming the butt stock against the stop instead of just sliding it to the end.

You can send it to S&W and it will require a new lower, and the associated paperwork with the FFL you bought it from, or you can ignore the problem
and just pay attention to what you are doing when you extend the butt stock. I would do the latter.
A CTR won't change anything, you still have to unlock it to move the stock.
