You’re on the right track!
ooh o.k so don't know how its called but I think it's the recess that holds the barrel back when the magazine ends..
Incorrect. Proper terminology accepted only. Might as well learn while we’re at it!
slide stop notch?
Ok now why is it worn/damaged?
too many times it was used I guess.
no idea if it's typical wear but if true it's a poor design decision as it leads to replacement of the slide instead of just the lever
Rather than poor design specifically perhaps the metal could be harder there or a sacrificial piece could be installed there (additional design could certainly solve the issue) with a small screw that could either be more durable or replaced easily. 🤙 1911 is a classic though.
