375 H&H Browning Safari Grade

I have a .375 H&H Safari Grade Browning from the 60s with Mauser Action, long extractor. The aluminum Floor Plate has a pretty bad scratch. Does anyone know of smith that can refinish the floor plate? Alternatively there must be a source for a steel floor plate that I could have blued?
Best regards/

Yep, I got a factory rear sight for my 1965 Safari .375H&H from them. Glad it worked out for you.
