Color Case Hardening
I'm just finishing a single shot Stevens model 44 project. Currently I have a matte blue finish on the reciever, but I'm thinking that I'd like some contrast to the dark walnut stock set and the blue barrel. I also have a Stevens favorite which has a glossy plumish colored finish on it's reciever, which I expect is the finish this model 44 should have. But, I've always liked the color case hardening and am thinking about doing the reciever that way.
So what I'm asking for are suggestions as to who does good work in either of these two finishes and about what should I expect to have to pay. I'd really perfer to deal with the actual smith and not some middleman type senerio where the reciever gets passed from one shop to another. Thanks
