Can anyone explain the Melonite Finish on the M&P Series?
I was just wondering about the Melonite Finish on the slides of the M&P series? What exactly is it and how is is different than an HK or Sig finish on the slide?

Melonite Processing
I think you will find that Melonite, Tennifer, etc. are all slightly different means to the same end.

Last time I asked for details I was told they have their vendor use the QP variation of the process. That was several years ago.
