Cleaned my minty new SD9VE after 100 rounds and noticed the striker tab is sheared off on the right corner. It looks like the right-front corner just broke off. The striker is still working, but I think a replacement is in order. Anyone ever experience this?

oOOOoo i could not see how that could happen unless there wass a stress in the metal and the force of the striker striking must of broke it. that when firing the striker hiting the plastic piece enough to do it?lol i couldnt see the second one happening but anythings possible. are you the original owner or in the first year of the original purchase? if so send it to s&w for repair.

When I took my SD9 apart to "polish" certain parts, I noticed that the face of the striker looked like it had a seam running down the center of it as if it was a "two-piece" component.
Considering the size of the the part, I'd be amazed to find that is the case, but it sure looks that way as there was, in my eyes a seam that ran down the face of the striker...

Yeah thanks, I should have thought of that...
Well, it used to have a seam on it! ;-)
Does the newly exposed metal of the striker look porous? Probably a bad casting.

The experience ( nightmare ) I'm having with S&W, they will want the gun.
That what SUCKS about S&W and this gun.
I would call C.S. and ask them if they have that part in stock.
According to them parts for this gun are on backorder for at least 3 months, as of last week.
Who knows though, I've been lied to so much by them.
Good Luck, 3

One thing different for sure would be where the striker safety block sits. I'm not sure about the length of the shaft though. The striker for the Glock 19 looks the same except there is no "foot" on the striker lug and the flat pin. S&W need to release the parts specifically for this pistol so that curiosity doesn't get someone hurt.
