Doug Turnbull is the first that comes to mind. Do a google on shotgun restoration, there should be several more around.

Jeffe:

We use Classic Guns in Beecher IL. They do a wonderful job with the colors and offer true case hardening. The skin is hard as it should be.

Best of luck with the project.

For charcoal/bone colors use only Doug Turnbull in the US or St. Ledgers in the UK.

Both do comparable and excellent work.
