Do military issue Mil-Spec M16's have a chromed bolt/carrier assy?  

What are the advantages/disadvantages of such?

Chrome lined inside the carrier and gas key.

normally your gonna wind up with a Chrome moly lining , unless you specifically order Chrome. years ago chrome moly was something to look down on, but the winds of change have made them quite the shooters. the only major difference is you have to pay a lil more attention to cleanliness of your weapon with chrome moly.
