I am considering sending my g23 slide off to glock for refinishing and would like to hear any experiences of others who had this done. How long did it take? How did it look? Etc... Thanks.

Glock refinished the slide of my circa 1989 G21 a couple of years ago when they machined it to install one of the new chamber witness ejectors. There was no charge, but not only did the finish look not-so-great, they also ground or sanded down the factory lettering on the slide to the point it was nearly unreadable.

They actually said they had to send it out somewhere themselves, and it took about 7 weeks.

Im leary that something of that nature might happen to mine, ive also been considering lone wolf because they offer black oxide refinishing but have questions as to theyre quality as well.

Glock is the last choice however CCR would be near the top. SJ 40

My concern about refinishing it would be that what ever caused it to be refinished would end up causing it to be refinished again. My concern with having Glock do it would be that they seem to have several different finishes. I had a pistol refinished, not a Glock, and while it came out nice, I know it added little to to value of the gun compared to the cost.

May just break down and cerakote it myself, its within my abillity and i have the tools. Have been researching old post and seems no one seems happy with glocks or lone wolf black oxide refinishing.

If you can live with it, I'd just leave it as is. I personally like the naturally worn look. Otherwise, I'd Cerakote it or NP3 it.

I would personally send it to ccr....they do top notch work, way better then anything glock would do....they will prep the slide and the work comes with a warranty...and the price is reasonable

I had Glock refinish my G19 slide in October. Glock calls it Reblue. It looks great and holds up to daily carry. Glock will also replace all internal parts if you send the slide stripped. Back in less than 10 days. Also had factory night sights installed.

Check out Robar. Lifetime warranty.

NP3 it and never look back.

Yes Sir, I have had 3 M&Ps slide refinished in NP3 from the ROBAR Company and they look great.

I plan to have a revolver refinished by Robar with a NP3 finish. Heard only good reviews for Robar. Reasoning for refinishing the revolver is I don't like the original finish (S&W Model 638). For my Glock pistols, I want the pistols to develop a bit of patina and character marks with regular use. I don't abuse my guns but I do use them as much as I possible can. I'll never refinish my Glock pistols.

Now that's sweet! I had considered a hard chrome upper job from LoneWolf or RYG. They get rave reviews, but I would prefer a blue black chrome, but not sure it's tuff snuff....I just love the Will Smith "Bad Boys 2" look though. Which is tougher?
