Certainly there is no hunting like the hunting of man and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never really care for anything else thereafter. -- Ernest Hemingway
I just got off the phone with Frank at DD and all of their production other than the Mk12 Stainless is now CHROME LINED.
I was about to buy from a 3rd tier manufacturer that was offering a CHF heavy carbine barrel until I decided to give Coal Dragger's info a look see and voila! Straight from the horse's mouth.
Frank said they have refined their chrome lining process to the point that there is no difference in accuracy between their previous nitrided barrels and their current improved chrome lined units so nitriding has gone the way of the dodo at Daniel Defense.
Thanks, Coal Dragger
Glad I could provide some useful info. Good luck with your build.
I have one of the new CL S2W barrels and it is fantastic.
Centurion used to make a midlength midweight barrel, it would be awesome if they’d make another run of them. I found a new old stock one about a year ago, so maybe there are a few out there.
