Chroming on small external 1911 parts
I want to chrome the barrel bushing, plug, mag release, and safety on my black 1911. Any suggestions of companies, people or ideas on this?

I'd have said Virgil Tripp but, I think they've to abandon refinishing completely to concentrate on their excellent magazines. I can however offer a personal endorsement of Accurate Plating and Weaponry. I had a Kimber done by Accurate Plating several years ago. Highly recommended...http://www.apwcogan.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;k6gixx wrote:I want to chrome the barrel bushing, plug, mag release, and safety on my black 1911.

Another option is the original "Metaloy" shop. I'm not sure anyone knows more about hard chrome than those guys...http://www.originalmetaloy.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
When you take the time out of your day to beat someone, it has a much longer lasting effect on their demeanor than simply shooting or tazing them.
