The Applewood smoked Burnt Bronze is great and for FDE I would go with Hickory and for OD Green Alder works well... Use Mesquite for camo.

NIC has that specific color H-250 A.I. FDE so you don't need to mix

I highly recommend Follow Through Consulting's Follow Through Consulting scoped rifle course.

I use the Slip 2000 Ultra Clean, which was designed specifically for Ultra-Sonic cleaning systems. This is also what the Marine Corps uses in their Ultra-Sonic cleaing tanks at thier depot maintence facilites and bases. Works great or carbon and greasy grimey parts. Slip 2000™ - 725 Gun Cleaner

120 grit aluminum oxide is the best and the recommended size. I coat bolts all the time, including the lugs and have had no problems, except for a very small number of excessively tight actions.

The Crossbeed is a good holster, very comfortable for long periods of carry and conceals really well. The only problem I has wa sit dug in a bit and i had to trim the leather. My favorite, and I own a lot of high-end gun leather is the Brigade Gunleather M-11 Hardcore. Best IWB holster I have...

The tip size varies depending on the size of the type you want to engrave. For example, you would use a .010 to .015 tip for 1/8" type and for 1/4" type you would go up to a .020 to .030 tip size. Tip size also depends on your type style, one line two line, four line, etc. For engraving...

My position is, don't even get close to the line on the regs. While most ATF agensts and local LE's you might encounter are very decent, some arent. I do both engraving and Cerakote work on a fairly large scale and always engrave .010 or deeper and always keep it a bit larger than the 1/16...

I have purchased several items from them with no issues. I received the items promptly and they were the proper OEM items (Rem 870 barrels). I've heared all the stories, but my experience was fine. A lot of times peolple hear of a bad experience and then dog pile on and all that info is...

Its not just the light temp, but other factors as well. What you want to look for is "Full Spectrum - Color Corrected" bulbs. That is what graphic artists, painters and others use. I belive the color temp on them is somewhere in the 4400k range. That is what I use in my booth and inspection...

Very nice work Chad !! Truely custom and superbly executed. As a lefty, I'm wanting one...

If the gun is done, then I would assume he could/would email you photos, which would establish the existence of the finished rifle and if all looks good he could ship it to your dealer C.O.D. That would be a reasonable solution if both parties are sincere about getting things resolved in a...

I would never even consider doing media blasting on guns for Cerakote and then coating without a refrigerated air dryer w/ coalessing filter. You are contaminating your balst media with both oil and water and spraying with contaminated air. My air goes through a 100cfm coalessing filter then...

So, which South Bend model would Papagrizzly go with for a small to mid size gunsmithing shop? FYI: I was out at Gordy's place a while back. He speaks very highly of you. You will be seeing an article in Rifle Firepower magazine on that visit...

I believe we are talking about a deposit for a rifle and a scope here, as far as I can determine from the post, not a firearm sent to a an FFL holder, so why call the ATF? Bothering the local police and especially the ATF with a civil matter is a waste of their time and could land you in...
