+1 for Black T My MK9 stainless frame and parkerized slide both rusted in less than a week of wear. I promptly had the whole pistol coated in Black T. No more rust. Took a couple months as I recall, but since I think Mr. Birdsong has passed away, may be longer delay.Mike1951 wrote:This is the reason I sent my stainless K-40 to Walter Birdsong to be refinished in Black-T.
No better finish for protection against rust.
There is nothing Kahr can do to help with a rust issue.
Keeping it in Texas, I had a Sig coated by Alex Hamilton at Ten Ring In San Antonio and he did a great job. Whatever he uses seems to wear better than Black T, but I carry the Kahr a lot more than the 226
YMMV
