dsotm Report post Posted September 13, 2016 Picked up a cheap 870 this weekend for the girlfriend to shoot. Works fine but the finish is pretty rough, wondering if anyone can reblue it affordably or if I should just rattle can it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Report post Posted September 13, 2016 I've been told if it's pitted then most won't mess with it, also they like to get a few guns together to make it worth mixing up a batch of bluing salts. I'd be curious the answer as well. I cerakoted the last gun I wanted blued but I much prefer a bluing job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metau Report post Posted September 13, 2016 Get in touch with the gunsmithing course up at Yavapai CC. I know blueing is part of their course and I'm sure you could find a student willing to learn on your new find for a minimal fee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hunterjohnny Report post Posted September 13, 2016 Look at parkerizing also. I did two rifles and really liked it. I mean I did them myself it wasn't hard. Not expensive guns but it was fun doing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
