About Diamond Coat

Diamond Coat is a proprietary system that allows us to create the most effective hard use parts on the market. Our diamond coat AR BCG's have been tested running 1,800 rounds of the nastiest steel case ammunition we could find as fast as we could through our AR-15. The bolt ran without flaw and without cleaning until the rifle itself finally failed due to lack of cleaning & hea

t. While we don't suggest you run your rifle without lubrication, we test our parts to the breaking point and beyond. Diamond Coat has a high lubricity which translates to easy cleaning, even after 1800 rounds dry (see picture below of uncleaned test bolt). The Science

Our Diamond Coat system was developed by our Material Science PHD for use by the US Government. It employs a two step process which include a proprietary Plasma Nitriding and Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition. The end product is extremely hard (RC 87), has coefficient of friction lower then Teflon (.04), and is self lubricating in dry service with excellent wetting properties.

We were recently out in Austin and stopped by the Veterans Out Doors offices. Great bunch of guys doing awesome work with our veteran community!

We were so impressed I ended up donating a rifle I had just built for testing to the cause!

Wondering what I'm doing with a Nickel Boron bolt? We have been doing some shooting with a couple MARSOC guys. This is one of their old BCG'S because they are now running Performance Arms DLC BCG's.

Just finished up this P220 for a local officer. The DLC came out nice!

I was just reading the internet (which I should never do).

Just to clear things up, NO we do not use Titanium Nitride. We use a Tetrahedral Amorphous Carbon. No our pre-coat is not Titanium Nitride.

Are there DLC BCG's out there that are? Yes, several companies refer to Titanium Nitride as DLC strictly speaking it is not.
