Can I powder coat the barrel? Does anybody know if there are any downsides?

It is possible to powder coat a gun barrel, but it would not be a recommended practice. The reason is that the powder coating could become scratched or chipped and then the barrel would be exposed to the elements. This could lead to rusting of the barrel and eventual damage to the firearm. If you absolutely must powder coat a gun barrel, be sure to use a very high-quality powder coating that will be resistant to scratching and chipping.
