    How about a free Widget?

    I'm drinking a Dunkin Donuts Coffee today and there is a short brown stick that plugs the hole in the cap when you buy one.
    So it's sitting on my table and I'm looking at it and thinking that would be perfect to depress the plunger when inserting a tight slide stop.
    Haven't tried it yet but it may also be good for depressing the other end of the plunger to install the thumb safety.
    I think Starbucks has a Green one on their cups.

    Or you could put a groove in the slide stop lug and it then pushes straight in.

    Yessir, I filed the groove in my 2 Kimber slide stops and my Wilson Combat CQB came with a groove. Only way to go IMO.
