Got my slide and barrel back from CCR-Refinishing!

It was worth the wait. I had CCR refinish my bi-tone slide in their toughest ceramic finish. It is absolutely flawless. The finish is nice and smooth with a very low luster. I'll get better pictures tonight of the slide and barrel. I'm so excited!!!

VERY nice! I like the "powdercoated" texture it has.


What are your thoughts on those XSSights?

I was thinking about getting a set for my wife's XD...

The slide was probably bead blasted before the coating was done. It has a very smooth finish although it looks texturized.

The XS sights are accurate but not 'precise'. On a defensive stand point they are nice and fast.

I agree it does look very nice. My Duracoat looks exactly the same
"textured", but smooth appearance.

Nice,

From the pictures its looks like the finish put on Glocks, what is it called..Tenifer (sp)?

I like the looks of your gun, may I ask how much it was? I think the finish is one of the best features of a Glock.

I wish it was Tenifer. Maybe when this finish wears out I'll have it Melonite'ed.
The finish has a gloss look to it depending on the lighting. In "normal" light it has a low gloss. The slide was done for $55. I know it's a bit more but I like it. My slide was originally stainless. XD-HS2000 couldn't Duracoat it.
