KINGPLINKER!! Another option is bead blasting then blueing on top, used to be done by Venom, looks very nice IMHO, and a bit different. Less prep needed than standard blueing. Kingplinker is your man for polishing, looks very nice from some pics i've seen on here, Mark

nickel plating looks good, unless you want it for hunting
Or a quick dip by hydrographics

Speak with John at Hydrographics, or a local metal finisher for the nickel plating. Prices can vary depending how much work is involved, when the ally stock for my Dommie goes to Hydrographics John needs to smooth all the casting marks then coat it silver and then apply the real tree coating! His best rough guess at the price was £180 max!

I had my S400 barrel and cylinder re-blued by Colin at Manchester Airguns (col@mag on here) He does this 'tactical matt' finish that is very nice....holds lots of oil so is great for a gun that's going to see a lot of use...doesn't show fingerprints either.

Very good value too

Could you PM his prices?

Or the price it cost to re-blue your barrel and cylinder? Also did you have to strip it first?
