Classicx Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 If i use glass beading to remove the paint off a slide will it eventually lose its shine and tarnish? How about with sanding and acetone? Link to post Share on other sites
phoenix360mute Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 i think viciouse discussed this elsewhere, try searching mate, hell, it may have even been in this thread, i remember him talking about it with a glock slide, check out the last 5 pages or so in this thread Link to post Share on other sites
dhunt2299 Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 get some polish made for aluminum and other metals and every once in a while just put some on and buff it. It will be like new. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Who makes slides for the G26 (KSC), I'm probably buying one with a metal slide, but the trades are engraved and not whited out? What slide's that? Because doesn't the KSC one have whited trades? (yuk) Link to post Share on other sites

What slide's that? Because doesn't the KSC one have whited trades? (yuk) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The HK KSC metal G26 and 26C slides were the last to be phased out to the crappy laser etched "white" trademarks. This happened very recently. SD has recently released G26 and 26C slides that are well engraved but chances are you have a standard HK KSC slide. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Yep, for £40 my guess is it's got the KSC slide Link to post Share on other sites

dhunt2299 Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Well, step 2 of 3 done for my custom g19. Here's fresh pics back from the metal shop where it was anodized. (yes I know there are no sights on it yet) I do have one problem though....the spot where the screw goes through the blowback chamber (I think that's what it's called) into the slide - the inner threads are GONE! so now the screw has nothing to catch and therefore, cannot secure the 'blowback chamber' to the slide. If anyone has any tips or tricks to solve this I would be greatly appreciate it. (I would spend all day giving you +1's) haha thanks everyone. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) Buy a tap (or is the tap the one that puts threads on things?) and re-thread it? Edited August 16, 2006 by Guest Link to post Share on other sites

dhunt2299 Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) super glue? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I hope it doesn't come to that.... :-( it doesn't sound very promising, and if it fails.....*ouch my stomach* Edited August 16, 2006 by dhunt2299 Link to post Share on other sites
ViciousV10s Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Wow that turned out well Dhunt, shame about the threads. Is the hole smaller or bigger than it was? If it is smaller have you tried just screwing the screw back in to rethread it with the screw itself? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Order a set of Prime night sights for my G17, anyone used them before? Vicious? Link to post Share on other sites
dhunt2299 Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 hhaha yea, I WISH it was smaller. :-( It's larger....still trying to figure out if there's some compound or something that I can stuff in there that a screw could penetrate and make new threads....

dhunt2299 Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 hmm....I never thought of that, I think I have some plastic slides laying around somewhere, I'll see if I can get it to work. Thanks for the bright idea vicious! Link to post Share on other sites

shaggy-z Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 hey..just out of curiosity..is there a slide for the Glock 19 or the 23F that is ported like the Glock 18C/26C? Link to post Share on other sites
dhunt2299 Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 there used to be a shooters design slide that was ported for the g19 at uncompany and wgcshop but it's been out of stock for a while. Link to post Share on other sites
bchandley Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 TM Glock 26 with Guarder metal recoil guide rod, GB-Tech metal threaded barrel and silencer, with advanced armament co trades. Also, the chamber has been polished. As you can see, looking end on at the silencer, it looks like a full-bore due to the large exit hole. Very nice touch that would be greater enhanced with the end of the inner barrel painted black to disguise it. I have some metallic gold paint that I may paint the chamber and/or slide markings with. Any opinions on this would be great before I take the plunge! Link to post Share on other sites
Shard Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 I have some metallic gold paint that I may paint the chamber and/or slide markings with. Any opinions on this would be great before I take the plunge! Dont, it looks nice as it is. Paint stuff gold and you will end up regretting it, then have a shed load of hassle removing it. Leave it silver Link to post Share on other sites

Leave it silver <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I only considered painting the markings, not the chamber itself. The chamber has the serial number on the right side and .40SW on the top. I thought that the lettering might look nice highlighted on a silver chamber, and considered the trades on the slide too. I've seen white trades but can't make my mind up whether I like them or not and if gold would look any better. Thanks for the opinion though, that's what I'm looking for Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Well my G26 is here and what can I say... It's fantastic! The kick is great and it packs a bit of a punch a terms of power. It's probably got the fastest recoil out of all my guns (most likely because of the distance it has to go, but still) I'm very pleased with it and what a bargain for £40!
