Rebluing

My K80 Carrier barrel is getting a little old and scratched... I am thing of having it Re-blued.

Does any one have experience in doing this, and any recommendation.

You want to deal with a shop that works on the K-80's, anything less and you may not get the best job.

Second would be a shop that works on double guns and is known for their work.

I'm with FITASC, go with factory people. When one of my P-guns was looking shaggy, it went back home.

I would take both barrels -- it might ensure a better color match.
