    Shield Slider Paint Question

    The new/better gunsmith said he could fill it in and make it look good. He promised it would look like new. I saw some of his work and looked flawless. He said he would also look at the sights and make sure they were correct also. I agree with pretty much everything you said Jiman either way I...

    Shield Slider Paint Question

    Well, they said the problem with a new slide is that it may not fit the gun properly. Which sounds like BS but that's what the SW lady said on the phone. My logic is I wanted to cerakote or do some type of finish to the slide anyways so if he pays for this then I'm happy and I don't have to jump...

    Shield Slider Paint Question

    Well, your connotation suggests that but I appreciate your input. Quick update. Called Smith and Wesson and they said 150 bucks for a new slide which isn't too bad. I also called around trying to get a few opinions earlier this week and was referred to another gunsmith who told me to bring it...

    Getting pissed off and angry never gets problems solved. And I would have talked to him already but work kind of gets in the way of that.

    Shield Slider Paint Question

    Thanks guys. Yeah, I'm just trying to figure out the best course of action now. I really like the hard chrome finish that someone did on this forum but the 4-6 week wait time would be killer. I just talked to another gunsmith and he said the finishes on the newer guns are more difficult to do so...

    Shield Slider Paint Question

    Okay, I'll try to make this short as possible. I just recently had Trijicon night sights placed on by my local gunsmith. He scratched up the slider pretty good and said he ran out of matte black paint and to come back when he got some in stock. This is what it looked like after. I came back...

    Well, just got back from the gun smith and got the orange trijicon installed. So far I really like them but will reserve judgment until I shoot with it. On the bad side the gun smith took off a lot of black on the slide. He ran out of black paint so he tried blue which just made it worse. So...
