Anyway..

I received the invoice today from a reputable.company, and the price was astronomical, does 487 for 2x bolts being fluted seem wrong to you.

Did you get a quote from the specific company you went with before you sent it?

That seems about $200 overpriced for two bolts- I think Gunworks is $140 a bolt.
