I was thinking along the same lines recently and purchased a second bolt, bolt rehab kit, and a general spare parts kit to cover the other non-BCG components of the AR. In looking online for these items, I saw a bunch of chrome and nickel boron plated bolts and BCGs. (I currently have a stock BCG, so I ordered a stock replacement bolt.) Any personal experience with the chrome or nickel boron plated ones? The claims are that chrome is easier to clean and that nickel boron eliminates the need for lube, although the veracity of both claims seems to be contested when researching via Google.The Annoyed Man wrote:When you're talking about an $800-$1,000 investment (or more) in a TEOTWAWKI rifle, another $200 or less for critical spare parts seems like an intelligent decision.
