I tried putting a slide on, and it definitely drags. I'm guessing it warped during the cerakote bake-on process, but I don't really know. This is the first time I've ever encountered this on an OEM frame.
That's normal on some Glock frames. They've nicknamed it a pig nose.

Mildly annoyed with facesplat marketplace
Good news: I got rid of two extra lawn mowers today, wait, wrong thread for that…
Anyway. Posted up a couple lawn mowers for a fair price (I know what I got… and apparently everyone else on MP thinks their clapped out push mower is worth what they paid for it)
So I get ~50 messages “is this still available”. Went through those to find the people that looked legit. Then the lowball offers come in. Dude, the ad just went up and I’ve got a couple dozen people that want them. No I’m not going to drop the price
Finally got it narrowed down to two people. Both were cool, we agreed on a place to meet and everything went great. They were stoked. I was happy I didn’t get stood up or robbed so there’s that
Sweet, got $100 in my pocket. Let’s see if I can find a wheelbarrow. Do a search and even though I specified my city and 20 mile radius I still get results from Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama. “Wheelbarrow” also returns a bunch of stuff I’m not looking for. I’m not driving 4 hours to save $40 on a wheelbarrow
Sucky that craigslisp isn’t much better

I ran into the same problem but finally figured out what I did wrong.
I also had the 20~40 mile range put in but under "Price" min-max you'll see delivery method. Click on that and change it to LOCAL PICKUP and you're good to go.

Yes, I dislike very much how MP seems to "think" for me.
I searched a specific item, now just show me that crap! Not a bunch of hooey thats not even close and instead 200 miles away.
Then how about when you look though the results of search in your "radius" that includes items WAY outside your radius, just to then get to the end of the list and scroll into the "similar items outside your area" and half of them are right in your hometown.
The stupidest program in the world and now it asks me if I need IA help? Yeah, great job retards!
