Abstract
A firearm with a slide and a frame. The slide has a slide rail. The frame has a frame rail. The frame rail interfaces with the slide rail. The frame rail has a lubrication groove and a debris removal port. The lubrication groove extends along a surface of the frame rail that bears against the slide rail during operation of the firearm. The debris removal port has gap within the frame rail proximate to an end of the lubrication groove.
