washguy Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hi 44 nib does two things its super slick so in a part like the bcg it glides in the upper and requires less oil and your bcg cleans up real easy the second thing it does... it makes your wallet flatter so you dont have back problems lol :) Wash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Lol. NiB coating is harder than a standard coating this prevents wear and damage to the part treated. It does provide a low friction surface. This feature is really only a benefit if you have several NiB parts working in concert. The surface works similar to a tephlon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 I should also mention, I have first hand experience. My entire upper receiver is coated. To test it, I ran the rifle dry (absolutely ZERO oil) for 15 months, never cleaning the rifle. My rifle fire flawless. I only cleaned it at the end because I was getting embarrassed by how dirty it looked. All the NiB parts cleaned to like-new condition using "FireCLean".

44Dave Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 OK, that's what I thought. I was a bit confused as the Shadow Ops Weaponry bcg I got came with dire warnings to lube it or suffer consequences. I'm sure that's a cover your ass thing to include with it, or they got a crap coating. Heh. Guess I'll find out once I start shooting the thing.
