The red plastic lens lock is likely to break, but replacing it is a very simple and inexpensive repair. Everything else equal, I'd buy an SL with the metal lens lock over one with the red plastic part, but if I were offered an otherwise good SL with the red plastic lens lock for a good price I wouldn't turn my nose up at it.
