has anybody had their LCP plated? how did it turn out, and what all did you have to do, to get it ready?

Remove the slide from the frame, remove the barrel and send it out to the shop of your choice. CCR-Refinishing will do it for $39 +8 for return shipping. Mine will be going there soon. John

WOW, that looks great. Can you take pictures from all sides. I may just do that. Very cool.

 

[sporty06]

I wish that one was mine and very soon mine might be its twin bro. I saved that picture from another board a few months back.

 

[rcaahfam]

wow that looks great! thanks for posting it up. I really wish there is a stainless slide available for the LCP, but that looks really good.

 

[Slappy]

Man, that looks REALLY sharp! I want to do that!

 

[Indy Man]

Me really likey.

That sure does look good, does it feel diffrent or anything like that?

found another pic off robar's website for there NP3 coating-
although it's alot more expensive then ccr refinishing...
I'll definitely be doing this when my LCP comes in.

wow, the plating really looks great and I hope this post isnt in the wrong place but what 'What is the best way to keep the blue on the slide?" I have several other handguns (only a High Standard that is blued) and was wondering what is the best way to keep the finish. I kind of like the blued finish.
thanks,
Joe

joe113- the best way to keep the blueing on a gun is to never put it in a holster! This is a carry gun, there will be some blueing wear no matter what... use it till it bothers you, then spend $40 bucks at CCR and get it refinished!

 

[mrbunky]

looks very very nice.congrats

I also would like to have my slide done, Is it safe to say the process is the same or not. It seems that CCR is the least expensive. I have never had one done before, but the pictures look great.

Thanks

I looked at a NAA Guardian because of the stainless construction, but went with the Ruger because it felt "right" to me.

Back in the "old" days (my first duty weopon was a revolver-didn't use pistols back then!) I had a "nickel" electrolis plated python that held up great.

I think I'll join the plating club and have mine done too.

 

[McIver]

dvutah, I hope you were able to keep that python.

I have a Colt Gold Cup that I had hard chrome plated 20+yrs ago, still looks real good, it has been shot a lot but not carried much. John

Accurate Plating -Hard Chrome. The earliest plating of any LCP in America. Ok, I just made that up, but it had to be one of the first ones done back in early July.
