carbon steel slide of stainless steel slide

Frank Sottile · 06-21-2001, 03:32 PM

Ok, I got a Stainless Steel SV Frame and need to get a Slide, now the question is Stainless or Carbon Steel?

I have heard of "Galling" taking place when the Slide and Frame are both Stainless and so I would think that is NOT the case if a Carbon Steel Slide is used. Any feedback would be a great help.

THANKS
