I've seen hks I think mostly the usps, maybe others I don't know. with red logos on slide or grip. Just curious if that's factory, or someone painted it. I'm not sure if I like it or not, kinda neat.. any info would be cool
Definitely painted. I've heard of several different ways of doing it. I tried it with my AR to make the 'safe' and 'fire' pop with white and red. I used a fine paint pen for writing on china. I have also hear nail polish works well.
Yep, some of us love them painted ladies and most prefer it OEM black. So to answer your question it's not factory!
If you read azimuth's link or use the search function you'll discover more about some of the original models that came painted from the factory, but most modern HK pistols are HE black.
