[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1367928, member: 30902"] I haven't tried it but I have a gunsmith friend that is very high on it. It's a relatively new process so there's not nearly as much out there on it as there are other coatings and treatments. Color won't make any difference in the performance or how happy you are with the rifle in the long run so I wouldn't let it concern me much. Meloniting is another option worth considering as one of it's benefits is that it's self lubricating and probably the most durable of all the coatings/treatments out there. As I understand the process the DLC coatings are vacuum deposition thus I would not expect it to be any more durable to friction that something like Cerakote which will show wear on wear points but still protects.
