If a customer ever saw how we would pound the crap out of a slide, they would be horrified. Laughin' here. Yeah, it takes a lot of pounding to move a hard slide much............. Back in the day when I was doing work on 1911's, I used a lead mallet for the peening on the slides. What did you use?. MM
