Dunno if anyone noticed this, but Dagger slides are now available in stainless finish.
yeah thats a great base to start if you wnat a polished slide. i believe that Matt has one hes polished.
might look good on a grey frame… any plans for a silver frame? ![]()
Sweet. When it first hit I checked to see if the slide was available by itself and it was not. Now I can scrap my plans to sand blast a black slide. I love a stainless slide on a black frame.
RMR cut please
Yes sir I will be buying one of those as soon as it’s available in slide only.
Ima jus’ Sayin’…
Noice
The stainless slide mentioned by the OP is a stainless PVD coating. It’s not a raw stainless steel slide.
Following the OP’s link, the product Details state:
Slide Material: Stainless Steel
Slide Finish: Stainless
And Features state:
Made from high-quality stainless steel
Is it perhaps both (which doesn’t really make sense either)?

The slide is made of raw stainless steel, then a PVD stainless steel coating is applied.
That’s what I think is meant.
I can’t find that in the product description anywhere - where are you seeing that?
This PSA Dagger Slide is complete, with a barrel and recoil assembly, ready to install on your PSA Dagger frame, and includes our
Stainless finish.
But that’s just canned language, this is from the FDE slide:
Slide is complete, with a barrel and recoil assembly, ready to install on your PSA Dagger frame and includes a FDE finish.
This is from the American Flag slide:
This PSA Dagger Slide is complete, with a barrel and recoil assembly, ready to install on your PSA Dagger frame, and includes our new battle-worn American Flag cerakote.
So not sure how them saying it includes “Stainless finish” means it’s some kind of PVD or somesuch?
It’s what it is… Stainless PVD. I even verified with the pistol operations manager.
They do need to make some product pages more clear. Like they keep saying Ameriglo 1/3 cowitness sights. They are 1XL’s. 1/3 or not depends on optic. For my 509T, yeah, more like I gotta add 1+3 and get a 4XL sight for that.
ah i was thinking of the one you had posted on facebook.
So to be clear: the slide is carbon steel with a PVD coating.
This is disappointing. I’m not one to complain much, but the description for this product is misleading. This has been a real problem among some firearm OEM’s lately. So I’m not just referring to PSA when I say this. I was looking hard at a Mossberg shotgun months ago that was described as “Stainless” when it was in fact a stainless colored Cerakote coating. Frustrating. Buyer beware I suppose.

All Dagger slides are stainless steel. The product description is only lacking the words “pvd coating”
The description needs to be updated to include the
" Stainless steel slide with PVD coating"
Not everyone knows this so the current description needs to be revised IMHO
