Robars NP3 on a Bolt Action

[fe1]

What all parts on a Surgeon 591 should or need to have Robars NP3 finish applied? Surgeon 591 receivers are chrome molly and the bolt has Ion Nitride (Case Hardening)so need to have a protective coating but I dont know what all I should have coated. Should all the components such as the firing pin,all springs,ejector, extractor,retaining pins,etc. be done or just certain parts?
Any info would be Greatly Appreciated.

Why?

Because NP3 is what was put on the receiver,cocking piece,shroud,and bolt knob.There was a mis communication on the bolt and handle (which did not get done) so I would like to know if the internals should be done also. I'm just trying to complete a seemingly unfinished project and need some professional advise on the internals of the bolt.

You might treat the bare receiver and I wouldn't worry about the rest.

call Preston Pritchett and ask him. I'm not a believer in Robar or most of those coatings. If you want it a different color, then use Duracoat, and do it yourself.

Preston runs Surgeon.

I have a Surgeon Action that has the bolt Hard Chromed.

I have a BAT with the action melonited, and the bolt Ion Bonded (at BAT's suggestion).
