Thought y'all might be interested. I was having a rust problem with my LCP, so I sent it to get NP3 refinished at Robar. The results speak for themselves...

Robar does excellent work and their NP3 is an exceptional finish but it can be a bit slippery if the serrations on your slide are not too aggressive (difficult to get traction). On my Glock 27 it's great. When it was applied to my XD45 compact slide (a slide that requires a bit of oomph to rack on a good day), it was not the best choice due to the XD's rather thin slide serrations and I asked Robar to re-do in matte black Roguard. They did so without hesitation - Robar is a great company to deal with and IMHO one of the best (if not THE best) after-market refinishers. Below is my Glock 27, Robar slide, barrel, slide release, internal slide parts, and Wolff non-captured recoil assembly. I would think NP3 would be fine on the LCP and look great.

Yeah, I know. Can't blame me, though, it looks pretty snazzy and now I can take it anywhere!

That does look great! I'm already getting some wear on the slide, when it starts to bother me I think this may be the way to go.

I'm torn between NP3 and Rogard myself, but the NP3 looks mighty fine indeed.Thanks for the pictures !
