I HAVE A 70 SERIES COLT GOVERNMENT MODEL FRAME THAT I AM HAVING SOME WORK DONE. THE GUN WAS A WELL USED SHOOTER THAT I AM HAVING HIGH CUT AND HAVING THE FRONT STRAP CHECKERED. I AM BASICLY HAVING THE PISTOL REBUILT AND UPDATED.

I WANT TO HAVE THE FRAME HARD CHOMED AND WANT SOME OPTIONS.
I AM LEANING TOWARDS ROBAR NP3/NP3 PLUS OR RON MAHOVSKY'S METALIFE HARD CHROME. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH EITHER OF THESE COMPANYS THAT THEY WOULD CARE TO SHARE WITH ME?

Seriously, the caps-lock key exists for a reason...

Metalife hard chrome would be my choice.

I had a HKP7 M8 done by Robar in NP3, and I was really pleased with the effect.  Not only the soft gray color, but also the smoothness of the finish as far as parts interacting.  Here in the sweaty South, NP3 seemed the better choice since I believe that hard chrome is still susceptible to rust.  I aslo had a BHP hard chromed though Heirloom Precision, but I don't know who they use for the refinishing.  I think for a carry gun I'd still go with the NP3 just because of where I live.  I doubt things are much cooler or dry in the summer in Texas.
