I need a revolver refinished. Advice?

[Tinman357]

I'm looking for reccomendations for a local company with a good reputation for nitride treating. I have an older blued GP100 half lug that I've had for a very long time. The bluing is mostly gone and I would like to have this treatment done.

Yes, I've heard of Duracoat, Ceracoat, etc... spray and bake finishes all. I'd prefer nitride for my own reasons.

Anyone here know a reputable vendor in Washington state?
I've looked through here quite a bit, couldn't find anything.

Anyone here have experience with local refinishers?

Ouch!!! But, it ill look far better than new. I would call or email Ruger. They charge $130 and certainly know how to finish their guns. Not at all local, but Ford's in Florida has a generally excellent reputation.
Alternatively, it's not as popular now as in years past, but Armoloy of Fort Worth does a super-hard stainless like finish.

Armoloy sounds like a way to go, has all the same atributes as hard chrome.

If Ruger will pay shipping? Shipping that bad-boy is going to cost over half that $130.00 alone.
