I'm considering having the boron carbide finish applied to a P7M8. I would like to find a very skilled pistolsmith who can bead blast the pistol and brush the flats carefully without removing markings from the slide. This person would also have to disassemble the gun, ship it to Bodycote and reassemble it when coated. Who do you know who does top quality work?
Best,

Jeff
