Bought a third gen smith online. Not really happy with the condition upon its arrival, but I can't get the seller to respond. Chalk it up to never doing business with them again and I now have a gun that needs to have the slide refinished (my assessment, others may not agree). Anyway, I am curious what the forum recommends for slide finish. I would like something more durable than cera-kote, so... Would Coyotekiller or CCR be who I'm looking for or would something like ion-bond be a better option. Just want a basic black with corrosion resistance. A Perpetual Disappointment... | ||

CCR would be my recommendation. | |||

Robar would be another viable option. | |||

I recommend CCR as well. Long wait sometimes, but stellar work. | |||

As most 3rd gen S&Ws have stainless steel slides, you might consider just a simple bead blasting and go from there. | |||

I had my P230 slide done by CCR (lots of finish wear on it when I bought it). Looks better than new now...just amazing work.  | |||

Ccr refinishing, excellent jobs for me. Better call Mary ASAP. Ask if they have any specials or upcoming specials. Very good folks. | |||

I’ve used all of those mentioned so far and have been very pleased with Robar. Also Birdsong Black-T has been fantastic.

CoyoteKiller and CCR offer great finishes, but my personal preference would be Ion Bond DLC (black). Club Custom Guns, Denton , NC offers this process at the best prices , I have had several slides done by them (they are the middleman), normally a bare slide will cost around $100 for Ion Bond in matte or satin, not sure what the polished option would run. I had my Walther PPS slide and barrel treated with Ion Bond 2 years ago, with daily carry in various holsters and usage , looks like it was just treated. http://www.clubcustomguns.com Club Custom Guns Ion Bond price list: http://www.jabuie.com/_fileCab..._Price_list_2017.pdf 美しい犬 | |||

CCR. Brad and Mary have served the Forum well for years. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

The thing about refinishing is that like most things there are a number of folks/shops that do it well. CCR has done it well for a long time right here on the forum. Hard to beat that. Risk the consequences of honesty... | |||

Another vote for CCR. They really did a good job on my police trade in P226. ____________________________ NRA Life Member, Annual Member GOA, MGO Annual Member | |||

Please tell me that's their CPII Dusk. I have a P229 slide, and a CZ75 Compact @ CCR now to get refinished in CPII Dusk. If either look anywhere near that fantastic when they return, then I'll be blown away. | |||

I've had coyotekiller do a few slides for me and they look amazing. His turn around time is pretty quick as well. | |||

Sure looks like it. They’ve done a pair of Px4’s For me in CPII Dusk and it looks fantastic. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

Yup. In my experience great results and fast turn around time. Foster's, Australian for Bud | |||

I'm gonna clean up the slide to a shootable condition and then function test it before making any decisions on coatings. Does ccr have a color chart with pics online somewhere? I'm kinda leaning toward the cera-hide right now, but didn't see a list of available colors in my cursory exam of their web page. A Perpetual Disappointment... | |||
