Not a shock at all. This is commonplace in the industry with almost all companies. SIG Sauer is by far the WORST company for the change-of-spec-as-we-like approach. I have been selling guns for over 13 years and have many stories of someone not getting exactly what they expected. Back in...

It is NOT Melonite (or any variation of nitriding), if it has chrome it is phosphated. The process to chrome the interior of the bolt carrier if and gas key, if nitrided, requires the surface that is to be chrome plated to be copper plated first, then nitrided, then said copper plating...

Just a quick grab from the gun room - one SAI, one BCM, and one Toolcraft nitride. The nitride is easy to spot (very top), but which of the others is the Springfield? Top or bottom?

I've been doing this for over 13 years professionally. Unless you can provide proof that Springfield contracts for Melonited bolt carriers with chrome you are wrong I'm guessing you don't have an actual nitrided BCG to compare to? I do and can show you the differences.

Things added: Magpul MLok QD mount Holosun 510C Magpul MS4 sling Test parameters: Reliability the rifle should be reliable with quality factory ammunition. Steel cased ammo is a common buy, especially in 2021, however I personally do not require a rifle...

Hey everyone, I thought I'd include my notes from the recent purchase of my SAINT rifle. Please excuse the formatting, it was copy and paste from my notes app and I am a horrible writer anyway. This will be ongoing if you all like it. Let me know what you think! (I have pics but getting them...
