BSA I won't deny cerakote has some advantages but the few guns I've got show superficial marks very easily compared to bluing. All H series cerakote and you can leave a shiny line with a thumbnail. I've used blued guns in extreme weather and have never had a rusty gun so cerakotes extra protection is lost on me. To each his own. As of now I'm off the cerakote bandwagon.
Strange, the cerakote I have had done is extremely scratch resistant. I'm not saying it won't scratch, but I've drug them thru brush/manzanita etc. with no marks at all. Painted stocks on the other had have had to be touched up. I'm pretty sure if Handwerk had Eddie F. do his, it's extremely well done. Surprised no one else has commented on this.
