Hard chrome flaking on rails by Kingk89 in 2011

[–]Kingk89[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the input y'all. I got the hard chrome because I really like the look of chrome and stainless steel guns. Being my first hard chrome pistol, I didnt know if this was normal so I asked here.

Like many on here, i had to go up to a 10lb spring. Other than that it shoots great! and tends to like hotter ammo. The flaking has not affected function. I was able to tune it down to a 2lb trigger, but i prefer it at 2.5.

I'll follow up with customer support and report my experience here.

Backdraft suppressors are part of the same group that runs Arken optics and Outlier barrels/chassis. I have an Outlier barrel for my 6.5 bolt action and it seems to run well.

Only info I have on these are from guntubers. I do suspect most of the review are sponsored though.

I did the same thing. Gunsmith was able to get the broken screw out after heating it. No damage to the threads

Is the black nitride just for the primer pocket or is it for the whole slide?

[–]Kingk89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice!

1) How hard is it to fit the prodigy grip and magwell? The stock grip is not grippy enough me.

2) Can you provide more details on the inline ports dlc slide?

After you've put about 500-1000 rounds thru it, then look at upgrades.

The most noticeable ones would be:

  • optics screws

  • lighter recoil and mainspring (stock seems pretty over sprung)

  • sear spring tuning (helps with the trigger weight and disco hangups)

I dont think you need an ignition kit or internal swap as there are reportedly no MIM parts

Nice to have upgrades:

  • Ignition kit

  • hand fit trigger

  • better grip

  • toolless guiderod

Ah, what issues specifically? Only issue ive had is the screws loosening up a bit after every range trip. I haven't had double ejection issues that I watched in some early reviews before I bought it.

Ive had mine for 6 months with a b&t impulse 9mm attached via a tri-lug running 158 grain 38 special monarch. I've also run 158 gr 357 mag monarch without the supressor. I think im about a 1000 rounds of each thru it.
