How well does the FDE coating hold up?
I really like the looks of the M11-A1 in FDE. For those that have this gun, or any other with the FDE coating, how well does this coating hold up? Is it as good as Nitron?



Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

I have a FDE 2022. 3 years now and EDC it from time to time in both Kydex and leather. The areas where the coating makes contact with the holster is slightly shiny or less matte than the rest of the gun. Just barely visible when you look very closely at the gun.
