Can anyone that has experience with LTT 92 Elites both with and without NP3 chime in regarding whether it’s worth getting the coating?

I haven’t technically owned both versions, but my experience has been that my LTT Elite with NP3 feels smoother, but I probably wouldn't buy another. I think the trigger job vs non trigger job is a much more noticeable difference.
I ended up with the NP3 Elite because I got a crazy good deal on a used one.
I prefer the NP3 but it is a small part of the overall TJIB upgrade. If you are comfortable w/ some 6-800 wet/dry sandpaper, and a polish tip in a Dremel, you can get very near the NP3. To me it is similar to upgrading cars. You get a real bang for the $ but, as you keep upgrading, the incremental performance increase gets to be more and more $ per step. NP3 is a feelable difference just handling the part. I don't remember why but a couple years ago I had a piece of 1/4 inch aluminum maybe 6x8 inches on my workbench. I had been moving stuff around and it ended up sitting w/ one side jacked up about 2 inches. As I was doing a TJIB install, I had the old trigger bar out and the NP3 bar ready to go in but wanted to do something else first. So they didn't get lost in the clutter I set both of them on the piece of aluminum. The old bar sat there but dang if the NP3 bar didn't slide down that piece of aluminum.
At this point I’m just waiting to see if LTT offers any Black Friday deals this year. I think I really would like a Compact to go with my full size.

So, Ken;
Have you even shot the damn Beretta yet?
