You're welcome---I would have liked to have discussed the topic but missed it by an hour.
In response to your question---no, I don't think we'd have ANY help. More likely, we'd see the Chinese stepping in for "humanitarian" reasons...then never leaving.
There was 4 or 5 acceptable posts and then a warning to tread lightly. Me and pistolbob immediately edited & deleted everything we wrote. I didn't get to see who made the comment to get it closed either.
I decided to learn to use Duracoat after seeing the results of a damaged gun that my local shop sent to Duracoat to refinish. You wouldn't believe some of the guns I have "restored" with it. If you decide to try it I'll be happy to discuss my processes with you.
