you telling me youd buy a painted gun over one in colt royal blue? Paint doesnt hold up very well, it chips off, scratches off, melts and bubbles with heat. Just doesnt adhere to metal well although i have a saiga 308 finished with some black russian paint they put on all of them. I may go duracoat or cerakote one day for that. Ive been told that blueing is a form of controlled rust. You are preventing the metal from tarnishing by.... tarnishing it yourself which i cannot understand because ive seen rust form on blued guns in moist weather. I go stainless on all my guns if i can get it personally.
