The 4140 steel construction is heat-treated to a proper Rockwell hardness, ensuring it withstands the repeated stress of cycling. The nitride finish, applied via a salt bath ferritic nitrocarburizing process, creates a hard, lubricious surface that reduces friction and wear. This slide is engineered for .45 ACP and 9mm platforms, providing a reliable upgrade for competitive shooting or duty use.
