Reply With QuoteI think the correct term is nitride or nitriding.
Once a barrel has been nitrided it cant be set back or machined due to the surface hardening.
I would seriously consider who would do the work.
Two questions
1. Would you nitrate a CBI barrel after you cleaned it But have not shot it yet? (OR) after you have cleaned it, shot it and then cleaned it again?
2. If you have nitrated a barrel before would you do it again?
Thanks

The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
According to CBI's website, they sell match grade SS barrels with nitrided finish.https://criterionbarrels.com/media/c...rided-barrels/

Banning a gun will not solve what is a mental health crisis inflamed by incendiary rhetoric on social and television media. The first amendment in this case is less precious and more likely the causal factor than the second amendment.
Thanks for the input. I think I will have my next barrel from CBI nitrided when I buy it.

You can rechamber SOME barrels that have had a nitride coating. It depends on who did it. If it was done with a QPQ then it will be very difficult to rechamber. If it is just a normal Q treatment then it will be easy to cut it away. A lot of barrels out there today are not QPQ.
