Metalwork

I do most of my own prep work before engraving by hand. I do metal prep on guns that I will be lettering or engraving or are engraved antiques and I am restoring. If you have another source for metal prep or want to do it yourself, that is fine.

Metalwork Prices   [Average Condition]

RIFLES & SHOTGUNS -- $250.00 to $400.00

PISTOLS -- $150.00 to 250.00

Finishing Options

 Hot salt blueing is available. Nitre or fire blue is nice looking  and a very bright BLUE. Only used on decorative small parts, like screws, or extractors. Antique charcoal is a finish that is dark blue and looks a bit aged. Perfect for older guns, but done on pistols only. Rust Blue is the standard slow method and looks blue, but can have a bit of gray depending on the steel.
