    Nitriding Rifles

    Has anyone had this done or had any thoughts about it?
    This is more intended as a discussion thread as it seems a pretty cool idea kind of doing a more hardy cerakote job but with a few possible extra benefits.

    Benefits I see as possible now are:
    -Black Coating and increased corrosion resistance
    -Natural lubricity possible smoothness to actions/increased barrel velocities
    -Increased durability through surface hardening/possible increased barrel life

    Cons
    -Possibly stress inducing
    -Possibly unavailable/ expensive
