What did STI charge for the new slide and barrel ?

Nothing, factory Warranty. STI may not be the perfect company...but they’ve always been good to me with their CS on warranty issues.

Well thats not what I was hoping not to hear. Jack, the trubor I bought from you is currently at STI with a cracked slide. I bought this one to have something to shoot while I waited on it to be fixed and then to have a backup gun. Now its looking like I will have to send this one off as well. They do stand behind their product, but it is frustrating to have it gone for a couple months at a time.

 

Thanks everyone for your replies.

This is a pretty common problem that has been discussed before. It actually can occur in both tight and loose fitting guns. 

 

Is the gun new?  Is it tight?  It's likely to go away as the gun breaks in. 

 

Is the gun older and loose?  Odds are it won't go away on its own. 

 

It's okay if the hood is a little loose in the breech face, a lot of guns are built this way. If it locks up tight enough on the lower lug to not allow the barrel to roll relative to the slide it's fine. If the barrel will rock then that can be the cause of accuracy issues.
