Mark,

I wanted to drop you a note to let you know about the bluing job you did on one of my customer's rifle, a Remington 700 in 243 Win. First off, I was impressed with the job you did. The surface was well polished and blue was even and had a good deep dark color. My customer was equally pleased.

Hi Mark,
Kevin Brady here. I wanted to let you know that I am very pleased with the work you did on the .22 bolt action rifle. The final finish was well above expectations and the quick turn around was amazing. Looking forward to sending you my next project!

It looks like you used old fashioned pride and craftsmanship when you reblued the Smith and Wesson 38 special that I inherited from my father. I would compare your skill to that of a Swiss watch maker. The detailed craftsmanship really shows up on the finished product. This pistol has my fathers memory attached to it for he used it when he owned four laundromats to insure his personal safety when handling money retrieving coins from the machines and restocking the bill changers . He served in the Korean War as an infantry soldier and then came home and pursued the American dream with a strong work ethic. You share the same values he believed in and I could not have chosen a better place to preserve the (old mans memory).

I just got my Kimber 1911 back from Precision Bluing, the gun was given to me by a family member who had passed away from cancer. The gun was a little beat up & i was not sure what to expect. I am amazed! the gun is beautiful & looks like new- i can't say enough about Precision Bluing personal service & quality. I felt the price very fair & now that i see the results- i should of been charged more!

Thank You so much Mark & Jennifer-ill be sending your more treasures to refinish for me.

Mark/Jen, just wanted you guys to know I finally got a chance today to shoot that Mod.12 that frustrated the hell out of both of us.

Most of all, I wanted you to know I got lots of complements on the finished product to your credit. I did do a refinish to the nicely figured wood on that gun that I admit I am proud of but your bluing got a two thumbs up. I just bought a new Browning 725 and was the first time to shoot that gun also so I had two new guns to shoot today and was proud of both but that mod.12 got more attention than the Browning.

Just wanted to share some good stuff after all the frustration. Maybe this in some way makes up for all the grief you had.

Mark/Jennifer:
Writing a little for your testimonials. The year 2012 did not start out well with the loss of a couple of close friends, and the decision on my part to get in a rush, so that I might need more medical attention by running a wood chisel through my index finger. It did look like a bad year in the works; however, then UPS delivered the Precision Bluing box last night. What can I say to you except all is right again with the universe!!! The sun has risen, and Mark has performed another one of his miracles in the beautiful restoration of an old & battered double barrel shotgun, or as he would state "a tomato stick".
Mark's work speaks for itself, and anyone who is contemplating sending work to Precision Bluing can rest assured that their parts will be done to perfection. I have had Mark work on many different types of firearms through the years, and all are excellent with never any issue. If you truly desire to do business with a professional organization then look no farther than Precision Bluing! Jennifer is an excellent manager, and Mark is a true miracle worker when it comes to any metal finishing. Needless to say that they will always have all of my bluing business. I should mention that on top of the excellent service they are also just downright very nice people.

I tried the store bought cold bluing kit for my 1978 Remington Wingmaster 870 and couldn't get the results I had hoped for. The gun was badly rusted and I sanded and cleaned it best I could before attempting to blue it myself. Sadly it just never looked right, so I searched the internet and found Precison Bluing. The price was very competitive and figured I didn't have much to lose.

I sent them the receiver and I got back a perfectly polished and blued job. I couldn't believe it and even my wife was impressed.

They polished out scratches even I couldn't get out before they blue'd it. It looks like a new shotgun now. You can't beat hot bluing.

I recomend Precision Bluing to others. You won't be dissappointed. Posted by John Martino

Good Morning,
I received my K98 that you folks were kind enough to reblue for me. I first wanted to thank you for the fast turnaround. In a time where fast is rarely akin with quality, it is refreshing to know there is a company that takes as much pride in workmanship as they do in customer satisfaction.
Keep up the great work and I look forward working with you for many years to come. Thanks again!

Merry Christmas Danny PS - a gunsmith of some 50 years saw my rifle and said it's one of the best bluing jobs he has seen. Thanks again!

I recently sent you a 541-s Remington barrel to be blued.i have been a gunsmith for over 40 years and I have never seen better work in my entire career. The barrel came back beautiful. There are no buffing marks. The Remington logo and other writing on the barrel still look factory, not a buffing mark in it.there is no way that anyone can tell this from factory blue. I will surely send you more work and will advertise for you.

Thank you for a great job and very reasonable prices. Bill Mitchell

I just received the complete gun in the mail via UPS about 30 minutes after I wrote to you. Please tell Mark that the bluing was first rate and every bit as good as any factory bluing that I have seen. After putting a little oil on the barrel the gun looked as if it just came from the factory. I am very satisfied with the quality of workmanship and the price.

Thank you again for bring an old gun back to life. Larry

Dear Jennifer,
I've written this recommendation of your work to share with other LinkedIn users.
Details of the Recommendation: "I had a 1973 Walther PPK/S refinished by Precision Bluing, Inc. It came out absolutely beautiful. It looked well used when I purchased it. It was polished and media blasted before they hot salt blued it. The backstrap was pretty rough but now it looks like new. No pits, no flaws and the little red or white dots have all been redone. I just could not have asked for a more beautiful job. I'm keeping the pistol forever!"

Luke Olson * Well my story begins with an attempt to re-blue a 336 Marlin using a cold bluing kit, the same kit found nationwide at sporting goods stores. I followed the directions exactly and the results were just unimpressive. The second weekend of my 2010 Deer season was a snowy mess. It was the heavy wet snow that left my gun and me soaking wet. After getting home I wiped the metal with a dry towel. And the bluing looked worse yet. The next day I was thinking I would reapply the bluing so I went to the safe and the gun was completely rusted.

I turned to the internet to find a place to have the gun re-blued. I found Precision bluing and sent my gun out for a very reasonable price.
When my gun arrived Mark called and let me know she was safe. A little over a week later I received my beautiful 336 back. The bluing is factory new, probably better than factory.
The moral of the story is that removing the factory finish and cold bluing the steel is worse than just leaving it alone. If you want the highest quality bluing on your firearm send your gun to Jennifer and Mark. You will not be disappointed and I truly mean that!

I want to thank you both for the great job you did on the parts for my Winchester pre-64 model 70!! I could not ask for better quality.

Attached are photos of the shotgun you blued for me, it came out beautiful. As you can see I made a shadow box to display it in.
I also did some research as to it's origin it turns out there was no Mississippi Vally Arms Co. it was just a name used buy Shepieigh Hardware of St. Louise in the early 1900's.
I am sure my brother-in-law will enjoy it, I will give it to him this week end. There are two photos, one together one apart taken before I sent it to you.

Hi Mark,

I am sending this email as an endorsement for the quality of your gun bluing. I recently sent you a Remington Express 12 ga. and an older Remington Wingmaster to be refinished. Both guns were returned to me in absolutely beautiful condition. The Express looks like a Wingmaster now and I couldn't be happier with the results.

You did everything you say you will on your website, you took the time to speak with me on the phone several times. I can say without hesitation the quality of your work and your customer service are both top notch. I plan on being a repeat customer and will be sending you more guns for rebluing. Thank you for a job well done and a pleasant buyer/seller experience.

Hi Mark,

The Stevens .22 looks fantastic! I really wish I had taken a "before" picture because the transformation was amazing.

Mark & Jennifer,

I have been building custom rifles on and off for 25 years. I have never had, or wanted, the means to blue them. I have always sent them out to other people to have them blued, with so so mediocre results. Then I gave up on building . I did not want to get in to finishing guns because my focus has always been accuracy and quality of internal workings, I could never find a finisher that was worthy. Finding You folks (through a good friend) has renewed my faith in the American crafts man. You are truly masters of the trade. The pictures are on the way.

I got my Winchester model 61 back and it looks like it came from the factory even though it's over 60 years old. The gun was really rusty from years of sitting behind the seat of my dad's truck. Certainly glad I didn't try to reblue it myself as I had originally planned (would have been a mess). I'm very impressed with the outcome...rust gone, no streaks, consistent color, and barrel/receiver print is still sharp.

Hello Mark & Jennifer,

I wanted you both to know I received my Colt 1903 Slide and misc. parts in todays mail and can't tell you how pleased I am with the work that you have done.

I will have to admit at first I was hesitant to send off, but after talking to Mark on the phone I was put to ease. The slide flats are nice factory polish with all the rest a awesome matching Matte finish. All exposed small parts the same matte finish. Talk about turn around time? I believe it got back before you even cashed my check. Then returned a check for $10.00 out of $100.00 to include shipping! Service is the best that I have ever been exposed to.

Food for thought, the frame for this build they tell me won't be even on the production floor for work until March 4th! I wish I had sent you the whole project. I will be sending a thumb safety for bluing to match small parts. ( I broke the original taking it apart for finishing...and had to wait to win a bid for another original colt part to be sent to me then to you.)

Anyway not to ramble on, You folks can sure use my email as a reference if you need one, doing the work like you did on my parts you can count on me coming back any time I need finish work on my Colt's. You guy's set the mark for everybody else for customer service, quality and all around fantastic work.

Thanks so much!

Hello Mark & Jennifer,

I wanted to let you know that I have sent you another Remington 700 Action to have blued. I included the payment and info. inside the package with the action. You did a superb job on the last two actions that I sent you, and look forward to getting this one back as well.

When I unpackaged my rifle today I was very impressed with what I saw. I thought it truly looked like it did when it was new. I can once again be proud to own and use this rifle.

Thank you Mark for a quality job.

Yes, I arrived in time to be assembled for Christmas. I was surprised how different the color of the receiver (brown) vs the barrel (blue) was. Mark had warned me that the receiver may not blue at all. Since I had stripped all the color our of the stock, the brown receiver looked very nice with it. In all a great job. I'll be breaking down the sweet 16 Browning soon, so expect another package. Thanks for the quick turnaround.

Mark & Jennifer,

I heard the honk outside as the UPS driver rolled into my driveway. I ran out to meet him and right back inside after signing for the package. I ripped into the box like a kid on Christmas morning and have been staring at this fantastic looking 6.5-06 that you did such an awesome job bluing for me for the past half hour! Just like every rifle you have blued for me… this one is beyond perfection. I am always extremely impressed with your work and attention to detail… you are an incredible craftsman sir. You and Jennifer have always been the absolute best in communication and help when answering my questions. I built a thumbhole stock for this rifle and will send you some pictures when it is completed. I thank you VERY MUCH once again for a phenomenal job and your professional service! I hope to have a 35 Whelen completed on another Mauser action within the month for you…

Take care and have a Happy New Year!

Thank you both again,

Mark/Jennifer,

I don't know if you were able to find my facebook account from this email address but I found your facebook link. I don't know if it is a group or what, but I just wanted to let you know that I was so impressed with the outstanding work and the customer service. I cannot think of one company that I have called and after a minute felt like I was talking to someone I've known for a long time. I really felt at ease and could not be more pleased. I was just looking at your customer testiments, read where one person said they recommend your business to everyone, and thought I'd let you know I already have. I sent your facebook link to all of my facebook friends that enjoy weapons in their past time. It is a large number as I'm a retired Air Force MSgt with friends retired and still on active duty.

I was so pleased I went through the other six long guns I have to see if any of them could use a facelift. Presently everything I have doesn't require rebluing but rest assured when I pick up another that needs it, it will be in the mail to your business. I'm still amazed how a gun 67 years old looks brand new. I don't know how many times in the week since you sent it back that I've taken it out of the gun case and marveled. Thank you again for the service and please don't fall to these hard times, you have a great art that I'd hate to see disappear.

Greetings,

I wanted to give you a note back regarding the work done on this Woodman MT. I was absolutely blown away by the quality and care that went into restoring this gun. When I sent it to you, I had some serious concerns as to whether or not the rust and pits would come out. When I got it back, it looked like a brand new gun. I could not find any inclusions anywhere. The finish is superb! I was also very impressed with the care you took into restoring the mags as well. This came out wonderfully!

Your sales pitch is modest, your delivery is superior! This was worth every penny, and I will use you again and recommend you to anyone. Thank-you so much.

Kindest Regards,

Mark/Jennifer,

I received my gun yesterday. Wow it is even better than I imagined. You guys really do nice work. My friend was here and helped me put it back together. He was impressed and I think you might be getting his 22 ruger soon. I even posted photos on facebook and told everyone you did it. Thanks again and if I get another deal on a weapon you can rest assured if it needs bluing it will be coming your way. When I get some time I will post to your web site. Thanks again and have a great weekend.

Dear Mark and Staff,

I want to thank all of you for the best service that one can ever get. It started with the first call with you receptionist (whom made me feel extremely comfortable right from the beginning) She explained to me how to send my handgun to your company, the phone call I will get the next day. Which I did get from Mark. Two days later I was ask if I wanted my trigger and hammer blued. I was called again to let me know that my gun was ready and will be sent out. My gun was sent out the same same day as they promised.

My gun hasn't been used for over twenty years, and it had a lot of rust. When it came back, to my surprise, it was like brand new again. I was totally amazed by the workmanship that this company has done. They far exceeded their reputation in my book. And yes, I recommend this to everyone. By the way, the price was extremely more than reasonable.

Thanks Again,

Al Isola.,California

Hi Guys,

Received the newly blued last week and it looks better than I expected for a gun that’s over 100 years old. In fact it looks beautiful! My only problem was remembering how to reassemble all the parts again. I just finished putting it back together and it functions perfectly.

It is truly a gem in my collection.

Thanks for the great job and quick service. I will send you a picture at a later date.

My best,

I just received my model 37 and was EXTREMELY happy with the finished product. It is better than I could have ever expected, it looks like a brand new gun. I will gladly send you any gun I need to get blued in the future and recommend precision bluing to anyone who asks me about QUALITY bluing!

Thank you again,

JOHN

Great job on the guns - very good work, very nice! Love it. I will be sending you guys another custom German Mauser rifle in a few days. I picked one up on Gunbroker that needs bluing. It should be delivered to the gunshop today so maybe sometime this week I will be sending it out to you. Thank you great job! As soon as my wife comes back from visiting her family in CT and brings back the digital camera I will take pics of the guns you blued and send you some pics. They are beautiful! Thanks a lot!

Thank you so much for the excellent service and bluing done on the pistol. I can now sleep at night knowing that Precision Bluing has treated the metal.

I am really pleased, truly amazed, all over beside myself, how about really happy about how my shotgun turned out. The only problem that I have is now I will probably have to buy another gun to hunt with. The one you refinished is too nice to take afield. I shall definitely spread the word about your wonderful talent as a craftsman.

Mark, just wanted to say thanks for a fantastic job you did on my 338 mag, It looks better than it did when it was new. Offsetting the action and the bolt with the matte finish really looks good, I decided to leave the bolt blued, I like it...

Thanks again... I will definitely keep you first on my list for any additional bluing projects.

I recommend Precision Bluing. My experience:You never know what your getting into when you send your "stuff" half way across the US to have some service done ... I have a 1948 Marlin 39A 22 that has been our family for over 60 years and it needed to be redone... I checked with a local smith and the price was over fifty dollars more than to have it sent to Precision....Jennifer said Mark is a very conscious person and treats each gun like his own. Well I sent it to Mark and I couldn't be happier... it is the best this rifle has ever looked.. his work is immaculate. He buffed it out perfectly and blued it to a deep beautiful blue. Every screw and piece was done with precision and they came individually bagged and bathed with oil... This baby looks nice

Fast and reliable, this guy can blue your stuff. I had a rusty barrel blued to high gloss finish, it looks great.

From Olen at HuntersOnly:

I met these folks at the Eastern Sports Show, they are nice people and seem to have a good quality service. If you need bluing done,check them out, Olen. (From HuntersOnly website)

From Pete F:

Guns received today. EXCELLENT execution! Makes me wish I had sent the blued parts of the adjustable Anschutz butt plate mechanism along with them. Oh well, c'est dommage. Ever need recommendation, just ask.

From Phil W:

I can't tell you how pleased I am with the blueing job you did for me. SUPER!!! You'll be getting more business soon and recommendations to all my friends!! I bought that used Red Label dirt cheap because the bluing was gone, you raised it's value tremendously!!!!

Thanks Phil

From Don Maser:

Jennifer, I received the bolts today. Very nice job. They look great installed in my two mausers. When I need a bluing service again you get the business!

Thanks, Don

From a bluing customer:

I received the gun parts with no problem, and assembled the gun. It looks great! I didn't have time to shoot it yet, but the action works very smooth.
Thank you for a job well done. It even surpassed my expectations with the extra polishing which was done on the receiver. I will soon be sending another gun for re-finishing.

Mark and all,

I just got home from the hospital and found the parts had arrived for my rifle. I can't tell you how beautiful that rifle looks. It's as though I just have taken it out of the box. The pictures do not do justice to your work but I love it.

Thanks so much for such a wonderful job. See the attached pictures.

Hi Mark

Jennifer and Mark,

I can't tell you how happy am about the job you did on my uncles gun. I have spent more on the gun than it is worth. My uncle is gone and he would be proud of the shotgun. I will be using the gun as soon as I get it back together. I really appreciate ya and will be sending another firearm shortly.

Yours Truly, Clay B. Oklahoma

By the way, I got the piece today and I'm a craftsman myself at my own trade which is psychology and can definitely tell craftsmanship when I see it and your job on my rifle was one of the finest pieces of craftsmanship I have ever seen in my 61 some odd years on this planet. Keep up the good work and if you ever need a reference which I'm sure you probably won't because your work speaks for itself; please feel free to let any of your customers contact me and I'll tell them how satisfied I was with the work you did on my rifle.

Thanks and Aloha!! Jaime (Hawaii)
