In a tough world where a working rifle might be “rode hard and put away wet”, this is the finish you want on it. With a very strong plating permanently bonded to the steel underneath, hard chrome doesn’t flake, chip, or peel, and its corrosion resistance is actually stronger than some stainless steel. The treatment we use increases surface hardness reduces friction on moving parts, doesn’t normally scuff or scratch, and leaves a low-gloss look that won’t spook the game.
