I've used these guys several times. They do some great work.

I assume the coatings have held up without issue ...? How long have you had them? Have they been through a "decent" amount of abuse? i.e., in and out of holsters and whatnot?

I've never had a whole firearm cerakoted, just various parts, and mostly on rifles. But those get more abuse than the pistols anyway, and the cerakote holds up well. It scuffs and mars like any other firearm finish, but I haven't scraped any off yet.

Yes, my firearms get thoroughly abused. I confess that I'm not very concerned about the cosmetics.
