    Well, I have send KM my rifle now.

    Hoping my new baby comes back with a nice protective coating on the metalwork.

    I've had some work done by victor ... He's very easy to deal with, and stands behind his work, I had an issue with a plastic stock being damaged in transit after the job was done, he requested I send it back and he redid the job. I also had him correct another issue on a cheek riser that occurred from the heat curing- I sent it with a blank stock to use as a mold.. Before he returned it (perfectly formed I might add), he offered a free cerakote job on the stock I'd sent. I've seen Greystones work and it looks excellent.. But I couldn't justify paying their fees.

    My little baby is on its way back from Victor. Got the suppressor coated at the same time, bolt handle done and micro-slicked the main body of the bolt.
    Can't wait to get it back home and put the scope on.

A business I work for has had 2 jobs completed by victor which both were buggered with a capital F. Not worth the $$ saving for the pain it caused. My 2 cents worth.

    Never heard of kiwicerakote dot com and it doesn't appear to exist but they hardly seem like an impartial commentator

    That'd be the second or third account he's had on here.

    I'd have this 'bling' done on all my 'toys', but having to live within the relatively tight constraints of tax-paid pension (still paying tax on the pension ), am not able to get $550 Omark 44's upto the $$$ the old girl (rifle not missus), would look with this treatment.
    Very envious of the work all of you have had done by Vic and Stu.

    Just called a media blast really. Can use either garnet or aluminium oxide at about 90 grit in an extended blasting cabinet...
