I dipped a rifle a few years ago. My thread is here and post #49 has what you're looking for.

Bottom line is I don't think it's worth it unless you need a specific pattern.
Before you suggest that licensing, background checks, or other restrictions for the 2nd Amendment are reasonable... Apply those same ideas to the 1st and 4th Amendments. Then tell me how reasonable they are.
As i understand it, the dip jobs are durable enough for the average guy. Unless you are routinely rubbing it one stuff it should be fine. I looked into it a few years ago and realized for me it was just a novelty so I skipped it. If your gun is a real war horse and legitimately hard use, then it won't last as long.
I agree with ggammell. I had my ar's dipped. And normal uses, range shooting from a rest. It should last. Here are mine.

It depends on the applicator as well. I am a factory trained WTP applicator, and the difference in product and applications varies greatly.
The DIY at home kits are pretty worthless and wont last long at all, however a job done by a professional who has figured out how to use cerakote as a base layer and clear can make a very durable product.
But ultimately it is a paint, and if you treat your gun as a tool and beat it up of course the dip job will scratch and chip and wear, no finish is impervious to that.
My Beretta Xtrema2 is dipped and the finish has held up very well.
Just put the .308 Howa (heavy barrel) linked in the first post on layaway. That Kryptek pattern looks kind of curious but is apparently effective.
If you get anything dipped don't do the dyi kits. I watched mine and it's not has easy as it seems on YouTube

Below is a "Gallery Of Guns" spot on the Howa. Anybody know what brand of bipod is shown?
