Exactly, except I will probably do one in HH and the other in HC.

Rick you are right on but at some point you have to refinish the metal to make it last "forever" That is a beautiful gun with great wear, super nice looking but if say %60 of the finish is gone I would refinish it.

Talked to the owner this morning, he said 30 day turn around time. I think I will send the DW to him and see the results and then maybe send the New Agent and STI if it looks good. He seemed a pretty matter of fact guy.
As I think, I may do the whole pistol, not sure, what says the group? Concealed is concealed, so no worries there. My FTO forever ago carried a nickel 1911 and dipped the end of the barrel in shoe black enamel. When I asked, he told me "it scares the bejesus out of folks when you pull it on them, all they can see is a .70 caliber looking barrel pointing at them" I will post pics.

I looked at them, but they are exactly twice the price of the other guy. Have you had anything dome by them? |

Nope, and at twice the price not likely to either..

There are the 3 Hard Chrome places I have been researching for my SS Vbob. Also for my RIA compact, but I may Hardhat or Black Chrome or even go 2 tone.
Metalife (in PA only one state over!) Read they do take longer than what they say, but work has been good. Typical smaller family operation. I kind of like that! $155 to chrome Semiauto APW Cogan Great work more high volume in a big corporate setting. Heard very good things, and people highly reccomend them. They also do custom work. They are the second cheapest at $200 Metaloy Supposedly the original? Most expensive but they have that great Matte look that I like on a SS pistol. I may pay the extra, but what I am tripping over is I can get 2 guns done at Metalife vs 1 @ Metaloy. I am not sure if paying more $ is worth it over the other two? It's about $300 to chrome a semiauto Last edited by aqualungs; 02-11-2015 at 11:16 AM. |
