nhglyn Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I have an STI Eagle Open gun that has a plain blued finish, at least I think it's blued. Is it possible to have it refinished in a matte chrome finish so it looks a little nicer? Any problems with doing that? Who does this sort of work, can you recommend someone and give me contact information? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Merricks Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 If you look under general gunsmithing or do a search for chrome or hard chrome you should find what your looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.40AET Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Tripp Research Great pricing and one week turnaround to boot. Read all of the tech info on the site. They put a lot of thought into plating a gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgary Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I'll second that. I have had a couple of guns done by Virgil Tripp, and as long as he is in business, my guns will go nowhere else. Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loves2Shoot Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Tripp Research has done 3 of mine and he did a great job on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openmike Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Virgil did my open gun. It left my house on a Thursday (Over Night) and was back in my hands the following Wednesday. The finish was perfect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rack&roll Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 Try Accurate Plating and Weaponry. Owned by Bob Cogan. They do great work, and are a full house gunsmithing operation also. They have done many guns for me, and I am totally satisfied. I have an STI Eagle there, right now, being hard chromed, and transformed into a limited/open gun. They are also an STI dealer and rep.

xtreme40 Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 I agree with Larry, Accurate Plating and Weaponry does a fantastic job applying chrome to any gun. Also he is the type of vendor that gives alot to our sport and to the shooters. We should all give him our support... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
