It is a beautiful polished stainless steel. I sand blasted mine to cerakote it but it was hard to do since it was one of the best polished barrels I have seen. If you are going to paint it you will have to blast it first if you want your paint to adhere. Make sure you plug the barrel, chamber and tape the gas port before you blast, which I'm sure you already knew.
