[QUOTE="jb1023, post: 1251434, member: 91995"] Looking for somebody who can Black Nitride my barreled action. I would prefer somebody in the Colorado Springs or Denver area but willing to ship it out if need be. Any of you have experience with somebody that does this? I've checked with the web sites of a couple of local smiths and none of them mention that as an option but I will probably call a few once they open later this morning. I want to do this is because I have a blued action and am buying a SS barrel. The SS barrel is on the shelf in my chosen caliber whereas I would have to wait 12+ weeks for a special order blued CM barrel that may not even be the same blue as my action anyway. The reason I chose BN over Cerakote is because I read, here and elsewhere, that Nitride/Melonite coated barrels MIGHT last longer and are easier to clean due to the hardening effects of the process. If you have evidence otherwise I am willing to listen. I suppose I could always just duracoat it and save a bunch of money? I do like some of the camo jobs I've seen pics of. [/QUOTE]
