Brass marks on my slide?

If this inexpensive 1911 is just a range toy, then perhaps you should just leave it alone.

Well yes, but I still want to see why it's doing this and see if it's easy to fix. I like my weapons pretty.

On a parkerized finish??

If you don’t bare down on it and just rub until the brass is gone, it won’t hurt the parked finish.

Try a white eraser too if nothing else works. Not sure about other colors but the white polymer erasers work pretty well when you get metal transfer on DLC coatings.

I still haven't been able to get the brass marks off the slide, but haven't seen anymore marks from brass hitting the slide either. I'm thinking that it just needed breaking in good. I've tried several types of ammo and all seemed to eject properly so I hope it's good.
