I have been pondering this question myself. I was looking at using a Cerakote coating, or maybe taking it to a zinc or galvanizing plater. I put the Cerakote coating on an old shotgun and it has held up very well on the parts that move against each other. The company I used for the Cerakote does a lot of automotive coatings, which suprised me since I have always associated that coating with firearms. I was thinking about a silver or raw metal look for the striker plates. I would assume the Cerakote would be cheaper than plating.
