Hello, got a new Dagger complete slide deal delivered the other day. Little bit concerned about how the chamber end looks. Almost like someone throated or attempted to.
That’s brand new? May just be the lighting but yeah I see shiny bits on the barrel hood thing, doesn’t look new to me at all.
Welcome to the PSA community @jrbarela ![]()
Brand new unfired
You had to have been sent a used one somehow, some inventory messup. My barrels with at least 1200 rounds through each aren’t even close to that. I only have slight silver bits on the feed ramp from bullets sliding over, and the top back flat of the barrel hood where it slides on the breech face.
No way normal use is doing that either, definitely modified. I’d contact CS, re-send pics and/or link them the thread.
My other barrel is the same way.
Thanks for the replies. I’ll probably ask for an RMA.
I had two previous Daggers and they were flawless
wow. I swear I saw a barrel that had been polished like that on this site a couple months or so ago! Some guy over polished the heck out of it and then complained about it. Was that pistol a blem or something?
Not a blem
Do the PSA guys respond to these posts? I’d like to get some input
Customer service isn’t on the forums. There’s a couple guys that can speculate but nobody that can help you with a return, you have to give them a call.
Thanks
about the only one who could really give you a definitive answer here about any of the dagger stuff is @mattbbb14, as he knows much about dagger lore.
It’s a new barrel. Production often polishes the chamber and ramp with steel wool.
after finish?
Yes
Thanks for the info Matt.
I’m new here, are you an insider at PSA?
You could say that… ![]()
Guess no RMA for me, I’ll just shoot it
Thanks to all
Shoot it and if you have any problems you are still under warranty for life with PSA ![]()
@jrbarela
I have to say, I’m impressed by this forum, and it was only my first post. Other forums have a tendency to pile on because of your lack of knowledge. Thank you everyone.
