Nickel plating

[He Man]

I have a colt 1911 frame that needs to be nickel plated to match the rest of the gun. Can anyone tell me where and who can assist me with it? Or is there anyone who can show me on how to do it myself. Your advises and comments are greatly appreciate it.

Smoking Gun FX in POCO does nickle plating. I don't know what the cost is though.

It's $100 for the slide, but they are moving and not doing plating for a while.

Get in contact with Gunner at 'Armco'. See his add at the top of the page. He did my Norc. frame a number of years ago. It still looks as good as the day he did it.
