Repairing finish

[piston10]

My dad has a S&W .357 that got wet while in the trunk of a car and is needing it cleaned up and reblued. It has some rust on it. Who is the go to person in okc for this kind of repair?

Nobody knows a guy?

If you're not worried about it looking all brand new again, you can use 00000 or 000000 steel wool and gun oil, and remove the rust.

Outside of that, I haven't found a favorite gunsmith yet, so you may just want to Google gunsmiths in the OKC area if you don't get a reply.

He will want it refinished and looking new. It was his wifes gun that passed away from cancer.

If you don't mind shipping the revolver, Smith & Wesson themselves does a great job of re-bluing. Harsh Firearms (they are in Norman, http://harshfirearms.com/) does very good work with Cerakote. They could potentially come up with a look similar to the original blue or a custom creation. Two Rivers Arms (they are in Oklahoma City, http://tworiversarms.com/Services.htm) does a very nice blue, but according to their website, they are not currently taking any new work.

This is what I would do. Or for a nice savings; drop it off at my house on your way to work I'll have it ready when you get off.

I have a Smith that was my grandfathers, so I understand sentimental value.

There would only be one option for me - send it to S&W and have it refinished from the Factory.

I may be in Tulsa but I come to OKC quite often and I do have the skills and equipment to make it factory new again.
I get work in from all over the country.
