I had a nice reply all written and lost it. Now I will try again.
I went with a Gun Works receiver because it has the nitrite process done as a part of the manufacturing process as well as the custom engraving available. The nitrite treatment gives the added benefit of corrosion protection and added wear resistance. The m-14 / M1a receiver is an expensive part, I would think it only makes sense to take advantage of this process when done as part of the manufacturing process.
John Wolfe knows his business, and I respect his opinion. He does not form his opinions out of thin air I would bet. I would also opine that he is basing his opinions on nitrating receivers based on a finished product and then treating, unless stated otherwise. If stated, then all this goes out the window. DI2
