I am looking for a gunsmith that can do case color hardening for a Blaser R8 steel receiver & trigger guard. From what I understand the receiver is a stainless steel which is a different process then carbon. Any recommendations will be appreciated. Looking to get something similar to the picture below.

I would see if Turnbull could do it for you. They are specialists for color case hardening.

I just saw Budsgunshop.com has both the guide gun and the African for $1150. FWIW - I bought both and decided to use the Guide gun - I restocked it in a Bell and Carlson stock and I added the Alaska arms floor plate to add a round. I wanted the shorter barrel as I will use a suppressor. I wont go lower than $1100, but I will ship it and no sales tax.

Let me know if you are interested

Bought it earlier this year
