Most 1911's that I have seen with peened lugs were caused by poor barrel fitting or the improper use of a longer link.
The longer link in a sense could present what appears to be a timing issue. It is just that the barrel sits too high and can't pull down fast enough to disengage from the lugs in the slide.
The SR9 doesn't use a swinging link and the fit of the front of the barrel hood to the slide opening is important for the accuracy of the gun. MY SR9 has slight peening after many, many rounds but I have seen pictures of others on this forum that were far worse with less reported rounds fired.
I have shot some other SR9's, two of which were fairly new models but shot quite a bit and I didn't see any peening on those at all.
