Ok, at the risk of being unfriendly here,
I’ll pass along what I was told about Black Nitride,
I bumped this 7 year old thread because I’m going to have a Custom rifle made,
The Rifle maker uses Defiance actions almost exclusively,
When we were talking about the build I asked about Black Nitride,
He said they are about to move away from BN, doesn’t seem to last according to them….
I’ve never had a action or rifle with BN so take it for what it’s worth.
Me, I’ll be going with plain ole Stainless , Action and barrel,
I rolled the dice on a previous build with a different coating, No interest to do it again.
You guys with a BN action or barrel, and it’s worked for you,,,, feel free to call me crazy.
I thought BN was impregnated in the metal and was not a surface coating? If so, I wonder what they mean by lasting?
