mickeyfn19 16 Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) hi all, im just wondering if i could anadoze my rifles barrel black instead of getting it blued as a new air tube is £18 so might aswell get one of those instead and then just get the barrel done. how much do you reckon it will cost? will it be cheaper than bluing? will it be more durable and less prone to rusting?

keithy 0 Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Hi you cant anodize steel,only aluminium and titanium. Electroplating a gun will mess up your barrel and all holes such as locating dowel holes will have to be reamed out again as electroplating builds up on edges, reblueing is the only safe option I can think of.
