Thank you. That said, I'm still curious how the rest of the internal parts would fare if chromed. Ah, I stand (or, to be precise, sit) corrected. Thank you.

Your assertion that the chamber is not chromed is incorrect. http://www.thegunzone.com/556dw-5.html http://firearmwiki.com/mw/index.php?title=M16 I was in fact referring to the chrome plated chambers as well as the barrel.

The moving parts are on the inside. The insides of M16A1s are chrome plated and work just fine (for killing poodles), so why should external plating cause them a problem?
