|  Reserecting a Beat to Death S&W revolver Hello Back in June of this Year, I came across a Pre-30 S&W-J-Frame revolver. I had been looking for a nickel version of one in .32 S&W Long Caliber for awhile, But could not find any. I saw this one and noted it had a horrible finish, but it locked up tight and had a smooth action. This told me it was carried but not shot much, nor Taken care of as far as the finish went. I took it to the range and found out it was a real tack driver. I made the decission to have it refinished, as I could Not stand the Kenner Easy Bake Oven finish someone had placed on it. I( sent it off to Ford's refinishing in Florida, after speaking with the owner Larna in great length as to what would be the best daily carry finish for wear. She assured me that the finish that would take a beating and not show wear would be High Polished Chrome. Here is the before and after pictures of my project gun, and I feel they did a Super job on it. They forgot to Place the barrel pin back in after removing the barrel for Plating, so in the spring when I am done carrying it daily, They agreed to pay the shipping to and from to correct this Pin Missing. I highly suggest Ford's in Florida for all your refinishing needs, simply follow the link and give them a call. Regards, Hammerdown Ford's Custom Gun Refinishing     |

| That looks great. If you don't mind me asking what is a ball park figure for the work they did?
