Anyone here set up to do hot bluing?
All:

It looks like I will be in need of having a rush hot-bluing job done and wondering if anyone here is set up to handle something like this.

I can send it all disassembled and would only need a quick bead blast of the bbld action to matte it up a bit. No polishing required on this.

thanks,

Bob

Dick Williams Gun Shop in Saginaw, Michigan does very good work and gives me quick turnaround times.

I don't know where you are but I send everything to Craftguard in Waterloo IA and they always get stuff back within 7 to 10 days max. They can blue as is, polish, or blast; whatever you want.

Thanks, guys! I will checkout those leads.

In a perfect world, I would like to find someone within, say, a 2-3 hr radius of Philadelphia so that I could drop off and pick up to save time on shipping. I am on that tight of a timeline with this, unfortunately.

John Farner (Toomany Tools) Does a very nice bead blast blue. I've used him several times.


As usual just my $.02
