This is a pretty good explanation of the Nitride finish. It is not Stainless Steel, nor is it Silver. It is a Nitride finish on the steel, is very hard and is very thin.
This is a good discourse on the subject: http://www.finishing.com/529/66.shtml Be sure to scroll down and read the gunsmiths response.
