I don't ever recall seeing it in/around the pistol before. When I finished oiling as usual, I put the gun back together as usual, and I didn't see anything that stood out to be missing. So...I'm sort of wondering if it fell out of something when I was taking the slide apart...or if my chair is falling apart.  If it IS a part from the gun, my best guess is that it's some sort of buffer between the spring and the rubber bit on the end of the guide rod. It doesn't seem to fit anywhere else. |
