I saw this as an add on when looking at Bison 6.8 barrels.  I want a black finish on my barrel, but this looks cheap.  Is this stuff legit? GTG or steer clear?  What are my options?

KG Gun Kote has been around for many years and is know as a pretty durable coating.  It's used by the military, tons of manufacturers, etc. KAC uses it for the M110, and other FDE rifles.

It is like any other coating, though: the surface prep and process are everything if you want durability.  Assuming that whoever applies it is not a pig or an idiot, it is a good finish.
