Like many others, I would like to get that matte black parkerized look on my stainless barrel. I am ordering a barrel from JP and they offer a teflon finish but after speaking to them they admit that cerakote is more durable. Cerakoting seems like the most simple and cost effective solution. I've had it done before and it works pretty good. I am curious about other, perhaps more durable, options. Are there any chemical finishes that can be done to get that matte black finish on stainless? Nitride maybe? I'm building a precision rifle so nothing that might affect accuracy. I don't mind paying for a professional to do the work, what are my options?
