... and that's exactly where I fucked up.... I bought a cheapo Leapers M4 stock copy. Never again.

Just by way of info; I recently purshased a tube sold to me as a Conti/Stag piece. As I was installing it, I put a bit of CLP on it, just to lube it for the butt piece (Colt) to slide on.
The finish started wiping off instantly, leaving the shiny black anodising underneath. So Now I'm going to have to refinish the damn thing w/a decent top coat.
Now I didn't buy the thing from Stag, but the dealer I did get it from, who is highly regarded on this site, told me it was Stag, and I have no reason to doubt him.
So if you do go for a Conti/Stag piece, test the ability of the finish to stay on before you mount it. Mine may have just been a "one off" screw up; or there may be a bunch of them out there.
