Well, I've repaired three 1911s that jammed because they disintegrated from use, two were WCs and one was a motor-oil colored generic. Personally, I don't use them as they take up space that keeps your recoil spring from moving the slide back that much. In a properly sprung and operating 1911 the frame and slide never meet anyway so, I have no idea what they're protecting from battering.

My CQB came with a shok buff (WC makes and sales them!); they work fine in the full size 1911s; I replace them every 500 rounds or so when I see a deep indent (no need; just a habit!). Don't use them in your commander size, Jubz!

They are not needed in any 1911..........just a marketing gimmick!!!
If you choose to use one in a carry gun and if you are engaged in a situation where it is needed the buff could come apart and jam the 1911, not good. I should not say if it comes apart but I when because it definitely will.

They have no business on any 1911.
I had one installed on my Heritage and after little usage it came apart and sieze the slide up. Had to strike the back of the slide with a rubber mallot to get it loosened up. Never again!

My DW VBOB did not come with a SB. I did install one on my Mini-14 though, but I don't carry the Mini concealed.
