color the gun
Where is the place to blue the guns, thanks a lot?
-
Find a competent gunsmith near where you live. He can fix you right up.

The frame is the place to blue the gun, it doesn't work so well on the wood.

I depends on what your bluing and if you want it to look original. Most gunsmiths will use a modern blues which are black not like the old time blues which actually are blue in color.

Don't destroy the value of a rare collector piece. If you wanna touch up a few spots, cold blue works O.K. I did a Colt .44 kit and it turned out pretty well. A professional job will cost$$$$. Welcome aboard and don't pay attention to the catty answers. It is getting late and their Jim Beam is getting to them. Semper Fi.

just to note; there are 'other' colors than 'blue' this is a .45 I had done in 'chameleon'

It depends. You need to tell us the make & model, & what are the problems in the finish that you think warrant rebluing. In many cases, you will want to renew the original metal texture, contour, & stampings before you reblue.
But, if price is not a concern, & you want the best, talk to these folks:
