    Duracoated Glock 21

    So I originally wanted to polish my slide and barrel, the barrel was easy because it's already kinda smooth, but the slide is not even close to smooth. I did remove the black of the slide, but it'll take forever or a lot of money to get it polished, so I decided to duracoat it.


    You might be wondering what color it is, it's Tactical Coyote Brown, I think the tactical means it's non-reflective. I also did my Nitecore D10, the pocket clip on my CRKT and a couple of mag floor plates, oh and the key chain glock.


    This was quite the learning experience, what I did learn is make sure you prep well, and know exactly how and where you will shoot it. I touched the slide while spraying (accident) and I had to clean it and start all over. I dropped the frame and it had a bunch of lint that I didn't notice until then. I waiting the next day to scuff up the imperfections and sprayed it again. The paper work does say it will completely cure in 3-4 weeks, so I'll wait till then to fully use it unless I have to (intruder). Thanks for looking and all coments are welcome.

      Thanks. Not sure what the gun is called, but it looks like a mini gravity fed paint gun, worked out really good, just needed to get the hang of it. I borrowed it from the painter from my work.

          That is a good looken glock. I like how you polished the barrel it is a nice contrast to the tan.

          It makes me want to duracoat my Hi-Power.

                  I really hope you keep us updated. I am curious of how it holds up after 100 rounds or so.
                  It looks really cool!! Good Job

                            You could have gotten the slide hard chromed .

                              Very nice, I probably would have left the frame black but this looks good too. The polished barrel gives a good contrast.
