Question about this Centurion's barrel chrome lining

[Soloman2]

Good evening. I'm new to the forum but not the AR platform. I recently bought a new CHF barrel from Centurion. Looking at the muzzle, the chrome lining looks way different than my other chrome lined barrels. Almost like it's cut down.

In the pic I was wondering where the chrome lining ends, at point A or B? It's hard to tell because this chrome looks almost dull or grey but then you see a shiny ring at point B.

Just was curious as to what others may think. I appreciate any help in advance!

Mine shoots great

Per the print, the chromium plating can end anywhere between A and B. The plating will fade out, there will not be a hard demarcation line.

Thank you for that information. One more question, I've always seen shiny chrome in bores and chambers(like my DD, LMT and Bushmaster), is there a reason this chome appears much duller? Just a duller type of chome plating? It just doesn't look like the chrome lining I'm used to seeing typically.

That dull layer is Monty's secret sauce that he applies to every barrel. If you know, you know lighter stronger no compromise...or is that another company. Too many CHF barrel offerings these days I get them confused .

I just put one of their 14.5 barrels in one of my rifles. Probably the most accurate AR I have in the safe right now. And gassed perfectly. Add the pinned and tabbed gas block on top of it and its bomb proof. I don't think I would worry too much about what you are seeing. And if you do have questions, give them a call. They are super helpful and friendly and will absolutely take care of you.
