wow!
ive suppried, that anyone would take on a blueing job on that gun.
FYI any item that you bead blast will come out Matte finish.
we do Nitride, if we do not blast it come out a nice shiney gray/black if we blast it come out a nice dark black.
Same when we phosphate, im sure that its the same with blueing.
bbb
wow, no words really??
I AM THE GUN LOBBY
IN 00 BUCK I TRUST
I think that gun was beyond bluing.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. (Sir Winston Churchill)
I would have never attempted to refinish that gun.
I've noticed a trend where someone complains about EPPS (warranted or not who knows) then the owner, or maybe a worker there, suddenly post something like "I saw the OP at the store, he was an idiot, they did a good job, we are the best ect ect"
Amazingly unprofessional way to deal with a problem, I would never deal with a company who dealt with customer complaints like that.
Have any before pictures?
wow, that gun was beyond and normal blueing and polishing. with the surface that badly pitted AFTER blasting, there is nothing you would have had to have spend $$$$$$ to get the surface smooth then finished.
the finish is dark, because of the basting. but judging from the after photos, there was no other way to get any finish to stick to corrosion like that. any polishing would just leave very light areas where the metal is smooth and black pits in the craters left from the corrosion.
Like has been said, blasting makes black.
A lot of time with sandpaper and a polishing wheel make blue.
If they got rid of that pitting there would not be a gun left lol.
I sent Epps an old Marlin 30-30 a few years back and was very happy with their medium grade of finish.

Beholden to neither left nor right, just calling the world as I see it
"I literally just directly quoted your use of colour revolution techniques..."
Epps did their best to polish and blue a turd.
Maybe the customer had an unreasonable expectation?
-- Learn by the experience of others.... you won't live long enough to make all the mistakes yourself.
-- The fool mistakes his world for the world.
-- Doubt is uncomfortable but certainty is ridiculous.
Holy Crap !! LOL
I think Epps did an excellent job......considering what they had to work with. Is this a Late April fools thing ? LOL
A victimless crime is a term used to refer to actions that have been ruled illegal but which are argued not to directly violate or threaten the rights of any other individual.
