I have a Ruger LC9s. it was bought several years ago but never fired. My Brother-in-Law passed away early this year and I bought it from his wife. I just started carrying it about 6 weeks ago and decided to clean it. I noticed a strange looking stain on the left front of the slide. I couldn't wipe it off. I used a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol to see if I could get it off. When I took the cloth away I almost dirtied my pants. The black oxide came off all the way to the bare metal. There is no way that the finish should just wipe away like cheap paint.
I just sent a message to Ruger to see what I could do about it. I have an idea that they will tell me nothing can be done about it. I have been around guns all my life and spent 23 years in the military. Never have I seen something like this happen. I have an idea they will tell me that I can have it re-blued at a cost.
