I visited a Kentucky branch of the company who coats the Sig Sauer slides and barrels. They have 2 other branches in the US and their Pennsylvania branch does the coating for Sig. Richter Precision from Germany. I am told there are only 3 companies in the US who apply these coatings. Hans Richter is the inventor. Or at least the company owner. I was told the new type of PVD coating did not stick well, widely known. The company went back to a older coating and all is good. I saw 2 Glock barrels and a 700 Remington rifle bolt waiting to have some type of coating applied at the Kentucky facility for a friend of its Manager. Thought I would pass on my little discovery.
Thanks, David.

| The finish on my legions hasn't peeled or flaked, but it wears very easily, showing metal underneath. It's less durable than the finish on any other firearm I own. It's an attractive finish, until it gets used once. |

Yeah the finish on the legions to me is a downgrade from a standard Sig Nitron. I have seen new legions in the case that look like they have 2000 rounds through them from being handled by customer. Unless these guns are being dropped 10 times a day there is no reason they should look like that.

| The new finish on the Gen 5 Glocks are some sort of DLC. How are they holding up? |
