It does look white, how did you do it? It is very nice. I just screwed my front up by getting off the orange paint. So now silver replaced the orange.
Very very nice, though they are seeming more common now.

I like it man, I was going to do that to my HFC Glock 17 but then I realized it's a piece of trash...
...Maybe if I get a KSC Glock I'll do that.

The flash is what made the slide look white, its really just a silver Caspian slide. If any of you plan on buying a slide, dont buy a Caspian, they look good but are built like crap. It doesnt fit the sights and stuff right. Thanks for the comments everyone. |

Is the opening too wide or too narrow for the rear sight? Is your alignment now still accurate?

Well the front sight is a bit too tight (I dont think ill be getting it back out without messing up the sight), and the back sight slot is too wide, making it far too loose, so I have to glue it in place or do something of the sort. It is still accurate for me as long as you take your time placing the back sight correctly. In my opinion, save yourself about 50-60 extra bucks, save the trouble, and buy a regular slide over the Caspian one.
EDIT: Also, the slide below the rear sight is supposed to have threads to hold a part inside the slide. The Caspian slide was completely missing the threads...so me and my dad were forced to create our own threads to hold the part in...NEVER buy a capsian slide, I cant emphasize that enough.

As do I insane, but since I melted my front sight I have been looking into getting either a new slide altogether or just a new set of sight(s). Now I know not to buy a Caspian slide...narrows down my looking down a little more.

www.airsoftgi.com/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=g19&x=0&y=0 (airsoft gi) has a g19 slide for $40, it comes polished, but they might have more as well. Check them out. Edit- You can also get a set of real steel glock sights and use those. They should come with a screw. Take the spring rod and all that good stuff so you just have the empty slide, then screw the screw into the buttom of the sight. This makes a tight fix, plus your new steel sights will never fall off.

To get a silver slide, do you just need to sand down a black metal slide, to get the effect?

Yeah, or you can buy ones that are silver.

Be warned that sanding it down makes it weaker and more I think brittle. I had to sand off my orange tip on my KWA G19 and it scratched it, so I don't know what it would do if you sanded the whole slide. Some guys on here have done it, should get a hold of one of them.
