[QUOTE="NesikaChad, post: 213916, member: 7449"] [b]Falcon coat[/b] FWIW. When I worked for Nesika we used a guy in Montana who owns a company called Falcon Coat. Never seemed to any complaints about it. One thing that we did experience early on with Nesika products. Due to the tighter tolerances between the action bore and the bolt, we did have to loosen up the "Borden Bumps" just a smidge otherwise the stuff would make things a little tight and it'd cause accelerated wear. The BEST stuff by far is a company called MMI down in San Diego area. MMI uses vapor deposition. It's virtually the same process used on higher end tooling in manufacturing (endmills, etc) 96 HRC is the hardness. We used it on all of our tactical rifles. Naval Special Warfare took a steel barrel coated with it and hung it off of a pier down in Coronado for a year. Not one surface inclusion from the salt water. No corrosion damage of any sorts. Just had to scrape off the marine life that had taken up living quarters in/on the thing. Pretty cool stuff. Not sure if Nathan is still up and running. Rumor had it the company split and went to Europe to focus on the medical industry. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
