[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 408691, member: 24284"] Well, there ya' go! If they were coated the outside of the barrel wouldn't be rusted, oil or no oil. Definition; "safe queen"; 'a firearm that is stored in a safe and not used and is maintained to look like new'. The coatings wear about the same as a blued firearm. The sharp edges of blued guns get shinny over time from sliding in and out of a soft case, so does coating. I guess I just don't know what you're asking. A couple of mine went to Alaska last year bear hunting and came back looking pretty good compaired to what a blued rifle would have. Also, had one go above the Artic Circle in Canada on a caribou hunt and one that went to South Africa to hunt plains game. They came back in better shape than most blued rifles would have. I've seen some customer rifles that I coated 8 years ago, when I first started using coatings. The finish looked compairable to a blued gun that was used and maintained in a like manner. [/QUOTE]
