Do they actually do the hard chrome in house? I thought most gun builders sent guns out for that type of work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimaryBruce Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I was under the impression that they did, but maybe I'm wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCPEMark Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 i will probably get in the doghouse for this but..... you might want to check out precision custom plating and engraving. ... platingandengraving.com yes, its my company. So, to give a brief history; i started doing refinishing back in 1990 with APW. also have worked with checkmate gun refinishing ( for all you people that can remember that far back). they have been Fords refinishing for like 20years now. Anyways, my wife and decided it was time to open our own place . For those who are familiar with me and my work , looking foward to doing your next project or just catching up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beechnutbob Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Fords hard chrome is done in house. I had them chrome guns that I prepared for plating. Dropped them off on the first of the week and got them back before the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuayThaiJJ Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 One of a kind Nickel Boron Bright High Polish by Ron MahovskyI highly recommend his work, his daughter Kim advised I do this finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOGRIDER Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 IMO, a beautiful example of PCPEMark's plating service! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrussell Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 What is the advantage of the Nickel Boron finish over Hard Chrome? The Gun looks fantastic with the high polish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpeters11 Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 (edited) Ron Mahovsky rocks, my a01 took about 2 weeks Polished slide flats, the rest matte NiB. Looks a little gold in some light, I like the color much more than hard chrome. To show color, he did the s2 grips and controls in normal hard chrome.

Bakerjd Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 @PCPEMark did this one for us. Hard Chrome and Black Nitirde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakerjd Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Another one he did in hard chrome and black nitride. Been having @PCPEMark finish guns for us at Prasky for about a year now and I personally have had him finish guns for about 5 years. He and Romae were the ones doing the lazer and finish work at APW Cogan Customs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
