Knight’s website has no info? What should I get? I am trying to take advantage of the vet sale and need to pull the trigger.

Personally I would probably would go with the Nitride model. It is really a stainless GM/Knight barreled action with the Nitride hardening and finish applied to it.


Nitride finishes surface harden parts, but it is very brittle. Phosphate is a conversion coating for corrosion resistance. nitride is a pretty good rust preventative too, it'll also seem slicker just because it doesn't alter the surface finish.

This might give you some additional information

Nitride/Melonite Coating, Arguably Better Than Chrome Lined.... Nitrid – Cobratac

X2 on the nitride, I would have gone that route if it was available when I got mine.
