You probably cleaned your gun, like many of us do. But there are some out there who treat a muzzleloader like a smokeless rifle and think "oh stainless" and don't bother to take proper care of it. Since CVA sells to a lot of those new to blackpowder they might have thought the extra protection would be a plus , and the color adds to it overall look versus the stainless look. Just a guess on my part.

i also test products on them as well. In 2 weeks of testing with a barrel sitting out through a handful of rain storms only the barrel lug had some rust spots on it. Hell i actually have a barrel outside thats blued, been sitting out there for close to 7 months and the rust isnt that bad, sure made it ugly but it would still perform.

So why the coating then is my question. If that stuff chips, scratches, and whatnot it will look stupid. If they warranty the coating they may have created a headache for themselves when it could of been avoided by just not putting it on there. Time will tell for sure.

those were untreated if i remember correctly. I have some other tests on my other computer that i never got to uploading.
Those that think SS won't rust, simply have the wrong notion... STAIN LESS. There is no miracle for stopping rust other than the owner being responsible for care to their product.
