    Well, thanks to cipherK98 post I took a harder look and guess what I found?
    Yup, a hole.
    Attachment 71571
    It's not a crack but a hole. It's that there's no material left after the machining or I should say very little, maybe 15 thou. The hole goes into the slot cut for the trigger. With the trigger in, the top of it is right there. No way this area was designed to handle any stress. Attachment 71572
    I literally punched through and opened the hole with a toothpick!!
    Cleaned it up with a needle file and rounded the edges just because. Attachment 71573
    I'll keep an eye on it but I think it'll make a good oiling point.
    If you have a hole on your frame don't mess with it unless your willing to completely strip your pistol. The trigger is first in, last out. The reason is anything going "down" into the hole will effect the trigger pull.

    Thanks for raising this issue cipher98. Something to look out for.
