    Why would you Ceracote a new stainless barrel? I know they aren't impervious to corrosion however simple cleaning techniques are all that is required to prevent it. Additionally, while I can understand the coating has a pretty good resilience to scratching surely it CAN be scratched and, once though to the stainless, wouldn't it peel easily? It just seems a strange move. I'm intrigued to know why Sako have done this. Can you enlighten me?

    It looks nice, I'll give them that.

    It's cool and people need new things to spend their money on.
