Lots of good, and . . . interesting suggestions.
I'd say the first step is to determine if the slide will travel rearward beyond the locked position; if it can't move rearward, there's no way it will cam the slidestop down. Rack the slide as far back as it will go, then eyeball the relationship of the slidestop and its notch in the slide; the notch should be about an eighth of an inch behind the slidestop with the slide all the way to the rear. If the recoil spring is removed, does the slide travel further to the rear? You might have an issue with the slide's rearward movement being stopped by the rails rather than the recoil spring tunnel hitting the guide rod; are the ends of the frame rails peened or beat-up at all?

Just as a note the OP hasn't been on this forum since 2015, so if you direct responses to him they may fall on deaf ears. Doesn't hurt to have it in the thread though.

Back in the dark ages I was taught the little part was called a slide release...pull it down and the slide released.
Sling shot was something David used to slay Goliath with . Don't need no sling shot on the 1911. |

If you don't count the takedown, it actually performs five functions. It's a slide stop that keeps the slide from running forward off the frame. It's a slide lock that holds the slide back when the magazine is empty. It's a camming surface that contacts the lower barrel lug and lifts the barrel into the slide. It's an anchor for the link to pull the barrel back out of the slide. It's a slide release. Cheers!

Yeah, we're good. Dodged a bullet with this storm. Too many dogs here at Castle Doghair, but I had too many dogs 10 dogs ago.
I've stayed off the forms for a while unless I'm specifically asked for input...publicly or privately. Hope all is well on your end.

Sounds like you have a slide buffer (little plastic bumper that goes around the recoil spring guide). Those little bumpers keep the slide from moving back far enough for the cutout in the slide to hit the top of the slide stop, forcing it down. If there is one in your gun, take it out, the slide stop will have no choice but to go down.
