• •Cerakote firearm coating - Polymer-ceramic composite finish in multiple colors (Graphite Black, Zombie Green, Smith & Wesson Red, Bright White, and more) with four coating options: clear, high temp, Gen II, and dry film lubricant
• •AR manufacturing - Custom builds and assembly
• •Gun stippling - Texture work for improved grip
• •Custom machining - Precision work to spec
• •Laser engraving - Custom designs and markings
• •NFA gun trusts - Legal documentation for restricted firearms
• •Machine gun rentals - Class III firearms available for range use

Unlike traditional finishes that erode after a few rounds, Cerakote bonds at a molecular level. It adds wear, corrosion, and chemical resistance while improving impact resistance and hardness. The finish protects neglected guns (surface rust prevention), feels better in hand, and performs measurably better than competing coatings. Smith Outfitters backs this up with durability tests available on YouTube.

They completely dismantle firearms, acetone-clean all parts, sand blast with aluminum oxide, apply Cerakote in your chosen finish, and oven-cure the coating. Final inspection ensures quality before reassembly and delivery.
