I've had my Colt 1911 Wiley Clapp 5" 45 ACP for about 5 years now. Got it second hand in a trade on Armslist which is why I'm getting a little worried about what I've been seeing on the slide. If most 1911 slides have this issue please let me know I'm being dumb so I can relax, I've just never noticed it in any of mine before. Also trying to see if I should take it into a gunsmith.
Pictures below, there are multiple imperfections in the metal, little dents, jagged edges and the finish on the inside of the rails wearing out almost like it's flaking off.
