StrangerDanger Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Bought this tube for a project. It's going on a Benelli M4 H20. No one was sure how close the match to NP3 would be. It's fairly close, but noticeably different. I've been told by another member that NP3 adhered to their carriercomp titanium tube. So I'm going to send it off to Robar for a better match for the client. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohbejuan Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 It's true, at least it looks like it to me. I'll try to take a better picture if you're worried about the risk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohbejuan Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Oh, one word of caution though. I had Robar do NP3+ on different parts of the gun at different times (don't ask, it's a long story). Anyhow, it came back looking mismatched, they said this can and does happen, the "tint" of the NP3 changes depending on the batch, etc I suppose. So if you're trying to match existing NP3, just be aware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 It probably has a lot to do with the surface prep. Ie: who's doing the bead blasting. The matte finish of the carriercomp tube is a bit uneven anyway. It may not be exact, but it should be closer than it is now with the added benefit of having a slicked up NP3 internal tube.
