Thanks to all those that gave me some purchasing location suggestions in my other thread. Much appreciated. Looks like I've tracked down a couple online, and I'm just trying to pick between the pure stainless slide or what's described as the "blackened stainless" slide. Am I correct in my assumption that the blackeded stainless is still just a coating on the regular stainless steel? In other words, no matter the quality, it will eventually show some wear on the rear of the slide (or other parts where your hands are frequently touching the gun, or a holster touches it)? I prefer, sorta, the look of the all black gun, but if the pure stainless finish will be easier to maintain and "keep pretty", I'll likely go with that instead.
Thanks in advance.
