I won't have a AR that is not a Stainless Barrel or a Chrome Lined Barrel and Chamber. For me its a matter of ease of extraction on my guns.
Anybody else have any comments on this???

I agree concerning chrome lining.
For my money an AR barrel will be chrome lined because I like the way chrome cleans, wears, and its mil-spec. Can't see any reason to change what has proven to work well, and after tens of thousands of rounds fired chrome has worked for me.
Would be surprised if melonite isn't cheaper to produce, hence its use in lower tier rifles.
