  • Melt?

    I can't figure this out contextually. What is a "melt job" as it relates to a Kahr firearm? Where does the name come from?
    Thanks.

          Here is an example of a Robar customized P45 with a melt job on the slide. Dehorn is another, likely older term for this.

                There's "melt" and then there's "Meltdown":

                        I am in lust!

                        Makes me want to break out my belt sander and smooth out my Citadel compact, then get it chromed.
