I have a project gun that only requires new bluing for completion. Can any of you suggest someone in Southern Colorado who does this sort of custom work?


Don't let so much reality into your life that there's no room left for dreaming.

thumbSee if you can find Elmer Spurger through Gene Taylor Sporting Goods in Grand Junction. If he won't do it he'll tell you who can. beerroger

And, if you want the outside blued but the bore NOT blued, there's a guy in Cottonwood, AZ who Paul Marquart used all the time BECAUSE he does that if you want (and because he's meticulously good!). I don't recall his name, but a call to Dave Scovill at Rifle magazine in Prescott (just over the hill from Cottonwood) would likely produce it.
