Cerakote Durability Issues

I had a few Guns Cerakoted , I mean from 2005-2018, not one has any issues, my Guns were done by Custom Digital Design, ( no longer in business) and Hiland Arms. I have seen a few gun stores offering Cerakoting and when I see there work, I just walk out of the shop. No need to burn bridges, but there work sucks!
 
Well, the scope isn’t backwards… the mount is. And that was intentional. With the shorter pistol brace, I needed the scope further backward than I could accomplish with it the other way. I’ve got other scope rings and optics im planning to run on it

Not a good idea to bridge your optic mount onto the handguard, unless you have a monolithic upper.

You’re using the wrong mount for your intended purpose. A cantilever mount is specifically designed to mount optics further forward. A standard mount would give you the ability to mount the optic further back.

Understood. I’m not running the cantilever mount permanently or even for more than one afternoon on this set up. It was the only scope mount I had in my truck when I picked up the rifle from the shop and I wanted to test fire it while I was in the woods hunting.

I’ve run this same scope mount successfully on multiple builds so I’m familiar with how it’s intended to work. This was admittedly a makeshift solution.
 
Everything was brand new. I had assembled the lower on the 300 black out. Everything else was still in the packaging. It included the cerakote and assembly of both rifles. $1150 total cost.
If everythinf was brand new, still in oackaging, and they didn't disassemble amyrhimg, it's didficult to point the cerakote as the issue. If thwy cwrakoted tge inside of the receiver, that very weell may lead to issues, but would wearnin over a few mags with some lube.

Tjat said, good cerakoters don't coat the inside of receivers as a standard.

Are you having a stroke?
Not the hand kind, the brain kind
