I don't know if it's true or not, but I read somewhere that Kimber's slide stop/release notch isn't cut the same as some other 1911's, therefore the typical width Shok Buffs won't allow sling shot/overhand chambering. I think that some places have thinner versions, or some people slim down the Wilsons, or use aluminum shok buffs instead (for those that insist on them). I could not get my Custom II to slingshot with the WC buffer, so I didn't use it. I also tried it with the WC FL FW guiderod without success.
I am trying one in my M9, but don't currently carry that firearm, and often use the 9mm NATO catridges since they were the cheapest at my local range (before the shortage). I don't know if it helps, but figure I will see how long it lasts, and how or if it disintegrates. No issues with the slide stop functioning on the M9.
