I think John's was just a shade more than that; he got it done while they were running a special.

The shade more included shipping both ways.

Looks like there is a new Robar PLUS finish too.  
http://www.robarguns.com/np3%20plus.html

It seems to be superior in corrosion resistance when compared to the original Robar finish.

Maybe more need for it for you Florida guys, if you fall off the charter boat with your pup in your pocket it will be better protected.  ;D
  Maybe thats why the ad states "Come Hell or High Water"

Yes.  Always coming up with something new and that's a good thing.   :)

Wonder what the price difference will be between the Robar and Robar Plus finishes.

Really the plus only means more $$$ the average person would probably not know the differance.

Another thought.  How would the person who owns the gun know he has NP3 Plus except that he paid for it?  Just wondering.

Drop it in a salt water tank   ;D

I just sent them an email asking if it will look different. I will let you all know what I find out.

From the graph, it looks like salt spray corrosion resistance improved a lot over the regular NP3 finish.

I will need to get my pup refinished with the New NP3, so when I jet off to Maui for some surfing, I can keep it in my Kydex IWB in my Speedo and not worry about the salt.  :o ;D
