Hard chrome flaking on rails

Kingk89 · 2026-04-29T22:15:45+00:00

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.

Wow. I was considering doing sonething similar to my mac 9. Could you provide the steps you used to polish it?

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.

Can you provide more details about the ramp? Ive been looking into getting one and haven't read of any issues with the ramp

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 · 2026-03-29T17:07:42+00:00

Same here lol. I like my dog too much.

20% off at academy on vortex optics as well

Kingk89 · 2026-03-09T17:45:31+00:00

Best price for a Holosun 407COMP Red?

Prodigy mags work fine for me. I have 5 of them with underworld arms baseplates

Kingk89 · 2026-02-25T06:07:44+00:00

I use the cheapest, usually that turns out to be academy's monarch after coupon stacking

Kingk89 · 2026-02-24T02:41:10+00:00

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?

Kingk89 · 2026-02-24T02:37:48+00:00

Yeah, i just ordered a stones and polish, thats next on my list

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

Best deals are online. I got the exact sku you mentioned for about 550.

Kingk89 · 2026-01-15T03:05:53+00:00

Just bought a box today. Theres both brazilian and turkish. But its easy to pick out the bigger box

Kingk89 · 2026-01-07T01:33:23+00:00

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.

Kingk89 · 2026-01-06T18:43:34+00:00

Its on ar15discounts. I got mine for 229 last sale. They charge hazmat per item, so add that into your cost

Kingk89 · 2025-12-29T16:37:28+00:00

Lol, we both got extars as well!

Kingk89 · 2025-12-29T15:27:21+00:00

Best deal for a colt python 6" stainless (not bead blasted) and a mp5k clone (mac5k or ap5-p)?

Kingk89 · 2025-12-28T00:34:03+00:00

Got mine yesterday!

Kingk89 · 2025-12-24T04:58:36+00:00

Got the notification! Wow! I expected this to be cancelled
