Changing the plunger will only help if going to a polished one and reduced spring. I need to take my optic off to see if the extractor is the issue.
My safety plunger actually sits so dang high it interacts with the slide, I'm not sure why shadow decided on that being ok.
A g43 OEM plunger in the ss slide sits at the same height since they seem to be identical parts.
Fwiw a polished plunger took my SS from miserable to shoot to shootable. I plan to polish the striker and housing and plunger before my next range trip and see how it does.
Shadow can fix this by building a plunger or extractor that while proprietary would set the plunger at a height closer to g43 OEM, and that would stop rubbing the slide!
