YES, you've got the idea Danke.

The plastic will still have to touch Part #18, but there will be no horizontal motion as it keeps the slide secure. But if you give the part enough free lateral space, it will keep the slide from ripping the fastener post off.

I'm just working on the write up.

The procedure is simple, however it will require a mill and the right end mills. A drill press if you are savvy perhaps.

I've already done maybe a dozen Glocks for others, they've been circulating around. The ones that came back to me I haven't seen break, and I'm hoping it stays that way.
