Smith & Wesson Pistol Slide & Firing Parts

Hitting Your Target on Selecting Smith & Wesson Gun Parts

Smith & Wesson has manufactured weaponry from 1856 to now. Fortunately, you can easily find inexpensive S&W pistol slide and firing parts for sale that run from basic plain slides that allow you to customize with the perfect add-on pins, sights, and coils to a distinctive green slide stop for your SD9VE, SD40VE, SW9VE, or SW40VE model. Before you purchase a particular item, you can pick up tips from the shopping guide below.

The good news about Smith & Wesson pistol slide and firing parts is that you can find firing pins, spring plate assemblies, cylinder stops, and entire pistol slide kits among others for the three generations of pistol models that the company has produced in over 160 years. Another bit of good news is that you may choose either OEM parts or aftermarket ones on eBay. Even more good news is that affordable Smith & Wesson pistol slide and firing parts for sale are made from cold workgroup tool steel, which indicates levels of durability for you to choose via the AISI-SAE grades:

• Oil hardening, grading from 01, 02, 06, and 07
• Air hardening, grading from A2 through A10
• High carbon chromium, often considered stainless or semi-stainless
• 1.2767, which indicates a high degree of nickel

You should check to see if the parts you shop for need anodizing, which increases resistance to wear and tear and provides adhesion for paint. If you wish a slide to match your hot pink pistol, then you would select an anodized part.

One way is to select a slide cover with laser-applied motifs, including the national flag, skull, or knight's helmet. Another way is to choose a distinctive color slide that enables you to pick out your weapon from others in a group situation, such as a firing competition. Adding a slip-on rubberized pistol grip is a third method.
