Perhaps this belongs in the 'for sale' forums... but I'm not selling them, so I'll post this here....
I stumbled upon this: http://casepro100.com/PRODUCTSnew.htm (go to bottom of page).
While there is no price on the page it is actually: 1.00 each or 5 for 4.25 and 41 cents for the stamp (in US funds).
I got mine by emailing Mike Fleury mikefleury@imageindustries.com
If your gun doesn't eat up shok buffs: don't bother (my Open gun never eats them).
If your gun likes the taste of shok buffs: these will pay for themselves in short order (my Classic 40 and 45 both love to chew on shok buffs, whereas my Classic 9mm just doesn't kick hard enough to destroy them).
I use this when practicing, but admit that my 40 goes commando when I shoot matches. I don't like risking that the slide stop will bounce up and lock open the slide prematurely in competition... this will happen very rarely in practice, but even that's too risky for competition.

p.s. I tried the aluminum shok buffs sold by Dawson. While they're an interesting experiment, they get squashed just about as quickly as a rubber buff gets chewed up, and then it drags on the slide and/or throw out shards of aluminum .... ie: they don't work for me.
