XDM 4.5 9mm question about barrel

Hello , from Montenegro

Fist question is , why when I try to acces this forum via wifi , i recive message that my IP is banned???

Second , I have new XDM 4.5 9mm , and I have shoot 300 rounds with it...
It is great gun , but this wear of barrel , is this normal???

 

Try lubricating the exterior of your barrel with a good gun oil or light gun grease, depending on your climate. Also, lubricate the flat, top area above the chamber that slides under the slide during cycling. Also lightly lube the underlug that locks up with the locking block in the frame, but not the guide rod recess.

 

Will do , but is this consider to be a normal barrel wear or not?

 

Should I maybe conntact someone about this , or is this considered to be normal???

 

Insanity is asking the same question over and over again and expecting different results!

 

No seriously guys , help me with an answer

 

Seriously, lube it and shoot it. My first XD looked like that because I didn't lube it well enough.

That wear will diminish significantly when the surfaces get mated together through normal functioning.

On my newest XDm OSP, I cleaned & lubed the barrel, guide rod, spring, barrel lug & guide rails even before a hundred hand cycles.

 

@romanson - As Ben Samuel noted, many of us have answered your question: this specific question, before......

Question about XDM finis

Is this normal please

And once again, yes, this is normal. Lubrication or not, it'll happen. And as you use the gun more and more, it will continue to accrue more wear. In the second thread, you'll see my pictures of my XDm9 at approximately 30,000 rounds.

 

Ok , and can I restore factory barrel look? Somehow?

 

Thanks for this replyes , but , since barrel is melonite protected , of i polish it , will it still be melonite protected.....
Or it will rust?
