I choose NOT to use the slide stop to close the slide. My choice. And I don't have any rounded slide stops or notches because I have chosen my choice. The (very) few times that I allow my 1911 to be used by others... I don't cringe if they use the slide stop. Annoyed? yeah... probably... but for the number of times they do it, they're not going to hurt this gun. Non issue for most I would think.
