    I've got Next Generation Arms' X7 here for test and evaluation. The ceramic coating is amazing. So's the accuracy.

    I've been using Nib for a while now. I have experimenited with all the coatings you named earlier in your posts. long story short, Nib is in the middle of extremes. super hard melonite is too hard....soft matrix coatings such as nickle teflon and ceramics are too soft and wear quickly. all will work, but have their pros and cons, Nib is self lubricious and hard enough to last without flaking or peeling. tactically it is superior because you can run it wet or dry. I have shot more rounds in Nib coated guns than you would beleive, it is the best.
    there is a company, WMD guns, that will Nib your original parts that fail zero would not. so you now have a choice. they are on the web.

    You just made my day. I've been wanting to coat my DD BCG to go with my FZ BCG. This also opens up triggers a bit since you can get the hammers coated. I've always been under the impression FZ was the only was ones that could do it. I'll be giving a report on WMD shortly.

    It's worth a test. I'm also looking at barrel extension and breech face in chrome.

    So what do these fancy coatings do that a well lubed parked carrier does not?

    Think PT Barnum.

    Yes, the Army has NEVER settled for second best. Everything they have is flawless. When they changed the Garand, and the M16, it's because Infantrymen know better than John C. or Eugene.

    In fact, the peak of weapons development was the Remington Rolling Block. Repeaters are for fools who can't shoot.

    "PT Barnum" more aptly applies to the morons with $1000 worth of crap hanging off rails, who don't know how to shoot, and figure, "The Army must be smarter than me, so 1960s materials are good enough for the functional mechanism of my rifle."

    I'm going out on a limb here and guessing some of you don't have training in metallurgy or chemistry....amirite?
