Holster wear on Slide

I know airsoft pistol finish arent made as good as firearms. How much wear will be shown from a Shooter Design's CNC slide from SERPA holster?
And which colour will show less wear? Black, Titanium, or Silver? (I wish it was stainless)

What pistol?

With my USP, there was very little wear on the slide, it wasn't discolored or anything, but the black finish had turned a little less textured. That was after a year and a half of use though.

On my MEU... well I haven't used it enough to notice a difference so far.

Likely it'd be a painted slide, so you might see wear marks (they look cool though), but on the Shooter's Design, I doubt it. I have the MK23 SD slide and it's anodized, which is a lot toughter than paint. But I can't comment on the holster in question since I don't own one, don't know where the wear marks occur from it (if any).

If you're a gamer and not a collector, why are you concerned?

Guns are meant to be used and have some wear on them!

Factory slide will wear very badly, SD slide will not.
