They do a great job bluing but be prepared for the unexpected. Here's a picture of a standard they did for me. I had to clean the bluing off the bolt and whoever prepped it for bluing got a little carried away rounded off the collar on the front of the barrel so it looks a little odd.

you gotta call them and ask try and get a quote, they like to say" we have to see it first to evaluate and quote a price, liked it better in the old days when the "refinish" prices were posted (listed), but with all the "other" BS, shipping, some dealers love to charge a "transfer" or other such "fees", taxes on service, and on and on.......all my guys are dead ,gone and me and Walter ( me anyway) are retired, his shop 'closed due to the owners death, and all his "stuff", tanks and machinery is in storage the past few years and he is older than me!! :cool: :rolleyes: :unsure:;)

(we do still tinker and do emergency, "local" stuff if NEED be.........):sneaky:
