Default 915 import marked slide

did a little slide swap on my 915 with a stainless 5906 slide.. so I am wondering what a C.A.I import striped slide might be worth? had to gut its parts for the 5906 slide..
once I get my other stainless parts come i'll post pictures of my now two tone 5906/915...

Curious why you had to change parts to make it work?

Also, I was under the impression that import marks had to be on the frame. Did CAI mark the slide and the frame?

Looking forward to the pics, I love a two-tone pistol.

the 5906 slide was striped, so I canned the internals off the 915 slide.
C.A.I marked on slide only...

The grips are Hogues, they are the same ones that fit the 5900 series pistols.
I have them on all of my 3rd gens.915 import marked slide


If you do a little searching you can find them for around $20 to your door.

Not a lot. About the same as a regular slide would be, maybe even less as a lot of people don't like import stamps
