maybe in pistol barrels and other low pressure barrels but given the heat required i would steer clear of it until further testing can prove conclusively that you wont blow yourself to bits.if it was so great the benchers and f classers would be all over it like a large kid on a smarty.

maybe josh but we are talking about hardening and that requires temps that change heat treats,sometimes to the point of overhardening and embrittlement.like i said in blowback systems,etc this may be fine but in 60000+pressures are u willing to risk your life?any of you engineers want to comment?

I guess if its done after the fact, to an unknown alloy you could have problems. However if it is done when the part is being made, with all things known and controled I think it could be a good thing.
