This is interesting. Made by Legal Manufacturing

Specs:
• HARDNESS: 70+HRc (1076+ HV) • LUBRICITY: Low static coefficient of friction without lubrication • More than twice the wear resistance of hard chrome; NIB will outlast the life of the part in most cases • Extremely ductile plating. NIB will not crack and chip like hard chrome • Temperature resistant to 1100*F • Four times the wear resistance of electroless nickel phosphorus • Plating thickness range: 0.0003 to 0.010 inch • Excellent adhesion to most alloys including titanium and aluminum. NIB is not intended for carbide or tungsten. • Improved impact resistance • Best performance is achieved when both mating components are plated with NIB • Plated parts can run lubrication free, reducing the cleaning, care, and maintenance without sacrificing reliability • All final thickness measured with XRF instrumentation technology
The color of NIB BATTLEWORN™ is a dark shade of gray with an aesthetically distressed, modern “battle” finish. NIB BATTLEWORN™ creates a smooth and uniform plating barrier without adding significant dimension to the metal part, increases the surface hardness of the plated part, and produces a product that is superior to competing plating systems.
And when did they start stamping the state of Georgia on the slide? What's the P stand for?
