    Is the wear line similar to this?

    After I rub oil on the area, You could see the stain more clearly from the black color.

    That's my P30 in that picture. Seems quite normal from what people here seem to say. The gun functions 100% so I'm not worried about it. :D

    +1 I have the same type of ware on my HK's and it seems normal. Most pics that people post of their HK's also seem to have the same thing. Post a photo if you can so we can see if yours is any different.

    Even the photos on the HK USA website show this wear line.

    As far as the wear on the chamber. All pistols I ever owned had wear marks where there is metal on metal contact like that. It is totally normal. I am sure in time the brown will disappear and turn to silver. I can't answer for any other of those stains you are describing, try to post some picks of the other "stains"

    I got some pics on my HK45 slide posted at HK-USA.COM forum-Customer Service-"HK45 FINISH DIMINISHING WITH PICS". I'm still waiting HK for an answer.

    I know that the metal to metal surface wear is normal. I'm just concern that its brownish in color.

    Just saw your post over at HK-USA and I have never seen that type of discoloration before. I would call up Travis or Jeff at HK and let them know of the issue. I really have no idea what it could be and have never seen that on any of my HK's.

    The part under the serial logo on the barrel usually turns a bronzish color but have never seen that on the slide before.

    I seen your pics, that looks like crap. Have you tried calling and talking to someone in HK?? I wouldn't wait for them to post a response, because who knows if and when that would be... Your pistol looks like the slide was not prepared properly before they put the finish on.
