Have you sent a gun back to Ruger for Re-bluing?
« on: December 12, 2009, 01:59:18 PM »
I have a rifle I want to have re-blued.  I saw on Ruger's website they charge $130 plus shipping.  Is this worth it or should I find a local gunsmith?

These days, $130.00 is a good price for a re-blue, especially from a major factory, where you can assume the job will be done right.
