I have an quackenbush which I am restoring. It has little plating left. Where can I have this rifle replated as it was originally and what kind of cost would be reasonable?

Even if you get a superlative plating job done, it will inevetibaly pit and peel in time. Why not look for what you want in stainless?

If you're going to get it plated,contact Accurate Plating and get it hard-chromed.You can't buy a more durable finish.

Think twice about plating that thing if you're going to hunt with it... Unless you're going to hunt a night without lights... Reflections you know...

I had a receiver nickle plated, and was very happy with it! It was a stain-nickle on a cadet martini (tried bluing it and it came out redish looking) The stain-nickle looked like stainless steel and had no problems for as long as I had it (8yr.s) Good Luck ...Mark
