There is no benefit from freezing and thawing a metal that started out at room temperature.
Permanent damage can occur in bi-metal parts, such as some welds, or where a harder metal has been bonded to a softer metal for durability. due to different coefficients of expansion, one metal contracts more, faster, than the other. This can cause a permanent bend or separation of the metals.
It can also damage the finish of coated parts. If the metal contracts more or faster, during freezing, than the coating, the coating may crack and/or delaminate from the part.
Most weapon manufacturers use parts that have been properly annealed to reduce OR INDUCE stress where necessary.
I would demand to see the study that proves the benefits advertised before wasting money on this "service". At a minimum, contact your firearm manufacturer for a reccomendation before you do something as silly as freezing your gun.
