    With the coating, it would shoot the exact same. Nothing different in the handling. When I was cutting into my stainless with my 1/4 carbide with a TiN coating, I wondered how a firearm would do with the same treatment. I have used the same drill bit for four Hk's, and three Glocks, oh, and a couple 1911's. I finally got some wear on it with the stainless that I could visibly see. You gota figure, thousands of revolutions per minute, cutting into treated steels, and it held up like a champ... I don't think a gun is going to do much to the finish. I will see though. I'm halfway thinking about doing an AR like that...... Halfway...

    Default nice

    If it were TiN I'd be all over it. A guy like you could do good in Denver.

    I've been told that quite a few times. I've had a couple of soft offers for work when I'm done with school from 2 companies in Denver. Lots of people see this web site (something we should all remember).

    It will be done in TiN or TiCN (rose mauve color). It will be the real coating and not a paint.

    I've been there, already done something really close to that... Wanted to go a different route... If I don't do the slide in the TiN, I'm doing it in my original idea of Burnt Bronze, with a TiN coated barrel. I think I'll do the weight in Burnt Bronze also.

    A buddy of mine had a "race gun" years ago (an STI if I remember correctly) and he had the slide done in some sort of midnight blue finish and had some realistic lightning airbrushed on it. It was pretty sweet.
