Is it worth the price? The pistol will be spending time off shore. I know there are 226 models that come equipped for this type of service, but I'm not interested in buying another gun. (gasp!)
Electroless nickel (which is what NP3 is) is a nice salt spray resistant coating. You might take a look at CCR as an alternative source. Their CS and QC is outstanding and I believe a little less spendy
Does anyone know the difference between the NP2, NP3 and NP3 Plus? Even the websites don't seem to offer much detail. It all sounds pretty much the same.
I think you meant CPII, which is their Cera-Plate II. CPII is a composite plating process...Electroless Nickel / Boron Nitride tank plating. CPII is supposed to be stronger (they say 10x) than EL/Teflon. It has the appearance of bead blasted stainless, which should look like your current 226ST
They are mixing Boron Nitride particles with the EL...whereas Robar mixes Teflon with the EL for their NP3...to make it tougher against wear than the teflon added combinations
