Air rifle blueing in Bangalore || Need help

Post by ren_jith » Thu Sep 03, 2009 11:18 pm

Hi, Anybody knows person/shop doing air rifle blueing in Bangalore ? I wanted to do blueing for my Air rifle.

I contacted Kovi Shop JP Nagar, as they are shifting their shop not taking any blueing currently.

Is this something you are considering doing yourself if you cannot find a shop to do it for you?

Bluing a gun is usually pretty easy and simple (for the most part) but it does take a bit of time and effort to make it look done well. If you cannot find a shop to do the needful you may want to attempt it yourself as the cost can me small and it can take you away from the telly for a few evenings....

If Kovi shop is not taking any work now i suggest you wait for a month and then approach them again.
The quality of work they do is worth waiting for.

Hello Mark,
How have you been? Do you have any simple home-brew ideas? If yes, do feel free to share some with us.
