How corrosion/ rust resistant is a CKArms stainless grip?

All,

 

The subject says it.  I have one with no coating and I am trying to decide if I should get it coated.  I like the way it looks on the gun without it being coated now.  I am diligent about cleaning and maintaining my firearms.  Just want to get opinions and suggestions.

 

Thanks,

 

Mike

I don’t have CK Arms stainless steel grip but I do have SVI all stainless steel built limited gun.  Decided to go all stainless steel thinking that I don’t have to worry about rusting, but wrong!  I can see sign of rust on the grip (coated) and on the slide rear serration despite wiping it with silicone impregnated cloth every after match but it didn’t work.  Not to mention I only had less than 1k rounds in it.

Almost any grade of stainless used in making gun parts will rust. Some folks have acidic sweat and will see rust no matter how well they maintain a stainless part. Others can go years with almost no rust at all.
