Robar NP3+ on Action Parts
Last Sept we bought my wife a P30SK V1, which I ended up liking a lot, so much so, that I got a standard P30 V1, and it's become my carry gun, replacing my 226 & 229.
I really like the P30, and the LEM trigger is very nice. My reference for a great trigger is my 226 that went to Grayguns, for the full action job and hammer/sear replacement. The results were very nice, and I’d say worthwhile, if you value the smoothest trigger possible.
I've considered sending my P30 to Robar, and having the slide coated in NP3+, and possibly the internals. Mostly for aesthetics, but also for corrosion, considering the climate here in regards to rust.
I just wonder how much the NP3 will lighten the pull weight, simply due to the slick nature of the finish? I don't mind the pull weight, or any aspect of my trigger, it's great as is, so I just wanted to ask for your thoughts on this, for those that have guns with NP3 on the action parts.
Also, with the LEM, have any of you sent them to GGI/LW/Robar for action jobs, with or without NP3, did you feel that the improvement was worth the time & money? Aside from shortening the reset, was there a big improvement with how smooth it was pulling through the wall?
Thanks

I did not think the unintended feature enhancement was a big deal. He did a trigger job with the coating and a bunch of other work, all of which was good. I think the trigger job was probably done before the coating. Also note that this was 1998.
I would unhesitatingly put NP3 on any gun I owned. I have several that need done, eventually.
The slickness of the slide was never an issue, and I ran that gun in some rainy, muddy classes before making it a groomsman’s gift. It is the best gun I’ve owned.
