I'd be very leery of someone telling me that the coating is what makes the slide hard and without it it will peen. Like I mentioned, none of the Colt s/s guns suffered the same fate over tens of thousands of rounds over many years through them,

Yup....near 2K for a pistol, DW needs to fix it no questions asked.

I planned to have it hard chromed which will void the warranty on the finish, but now I am holding off on that and may wait until the warranty is up in 4 years. Last thing I want to do is spend $300 and then have them replace the slide, or deny replacing due to me refinishing it.
I am hoping Keith takes care of it, and also reads this thread. After all Cotep gravitates towards DW owners and that should be important to them. I don’t doubt they will make it right, but like you guys all said this should not be accepted as "normal wear”. I also shouldn’t have accept that I got one of the pistols with this problem and it’s normal to a certain degree.
Again I am leery of escalating this because déjà vu when my E-series had an issue where the slide took off all the anodizing on the frame rails. They ended up calling it normal after asking me to send it back to them 4x??. Every time I sent it to them it came back with more damage and to them it was my fault for sending it in.

Wait a second....Dan Wesson has a four year warranty? That's it?
