Checking headspace on older firearms is critical, if your headspace is out of specifications your firearm is not safe to shoot. We can safety check the firearm before you purchase it, if the sale is local.

Deluxe Cleaning:

Slow Rust Bluing:
Rust bluing is the finest firearm finish available but rust bluing is not a fast process, it takes time, patience and an artist/chemist to do it properly. Arsenal Gunsmith uses the exact formula’s used a century ago to match your existing firearm finish.
Hot Bluing:
Hot bluing is available in a matte black, satin or a high gloss polished finish.
Phosphate Finish:
Phosphate finish or “Parkerizing” is available in a matte black or dark grey for military surplus firearms.
Duracoat:
Duracoat is the finest paint application available on the market, it has self lubricating properties other painted finishes don’t offer, it’s durable and holds up to holster wear and general wear and tear. Duracoat is available in almost every color imaginable and works extremely well for camouflage finishes.
Anodizing:
Have an 80% receiver you need anodized and dyed? We can do a proper finish on pistol frames or AR pattern receivers.

Conservation:
Our conversation service is designed to conserve the existing state of your firearm. Conservation halts rust and oxidization preserving your firearm for future generations to enjoy. Conservation is recommended for all military surplus firearms and collectibles.
Restoration:
Restoration services are the next step, if your firearm is beyond conservation we recommend restoration. Restoration services begin with our conservation but go beyond with rust bluing, phosphate finishing (Parkerizing), stock inletting, reinforcement and refinishing to arsenal specifications.
