I was really hoping you were going to say that those were all photo shopped ><
I got my gun in 2004 so I am sure that mine is not the mel coating either. Sorry for your loss. My condolences. But thank god SA covered you! Kudos! |

If you have a 2004 just be sure to oil it regularly and i dont think you will ever have an issue. SA said they will have to determine if the finish was faulty or not. But the way i see it, no matter what it has to be refinished, and 90 bucks for armory kote isnt a bad deal at all. Even if i have to pay for it.

That will do it everytime. Sweat through a leather holster and it will eat a gun alive.
Mine was a pancake holster with a S&W 19 stubbie. Had to get it reblued.

My guess is they'll refinish it no charge.

In lieu of paying SA $90 to refinish it, I'd think twice about sending it to CCR for a cera-hide treatment.
