Just because I want to give S&W the benefit of the doubt, is there a chance that these aluminum frames are anodized prior to the addition of whatever coating is flaking off? I can't see S&W skipping a step that important and relatively inexpensive.
If whatever cheap chinese mfg. made the .50 cent carabiner on my key chain can anodize that, then I have to believe that the fine american institution of Smith and Wesson is not negligently removing this from their manufacturing process.
