Actually I've put over 200 rounds through my gun and never had a problem from the gun or the mags. It will digest everything... I'd love to try loading some wad-cutters... I have some VERY flat nosed 230 grs... and it swallowed them without a hiccup! Finish is similar to some other guns out there... I've got an FN Hi-Power with has the most beautiful polished deep blue... and I've seen other including the Sig P220 where the slide looked like it was dry and needed some oil.
I've not asked anyone if they had tried putting some rub on finish... even waxes... to keep the slide (actually the frame is a better finish) looking nicer.
Check out the PT1911 section... lot's of info there
