Mark is a profession and he CARES! Every time I send a rifle in, I get a call and Mark is asking the game plan. Mark is currently performing his High Gloss service on another one of my Savage Model 99's and he will receive the third one as soon as I get number 2 back together. The service is WORLD CLASS and Mark will tell you up front if what you want is possible as some things cannot be blued and some people actually believe ANY metal can be blued. I am MORE THAN THRILLED with Precision Professionalism and will remain a loyal customer until my time ends. THANKS MARK! read more

Amazing company! They recently handled two firearms for my husband. They handled everything timely, stayed in communication with us, and, even through some personal difficulties, still managed to get done what we needed in a truly professional manner. Very happy with their work and their customer service. Top-notch. read more

not impressed with their quality of work or gunsmithing. they hand tightened the picatinny rail, no torque, the did not even use any plug screws. they over charge and are not transparent. their bluing is below average. the reason my review took so long to submit is i have battled cancer then spent over 2 months in hospital with blood infection. i will NEVER USE them for anything and they even scratched under the picatinny rail and did not even repair but covered it up. my recommedation is use another company who actually have a real gunsmith, waste of my time and money!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Words that come to mind when I consider all of the projects that I have sent through the years to Mark and Jennifer of Precision Bluing are: Outstanding quality, excellent work and service, fast return time, and a very professional business attitude. I am a general gunsmith, and use Precision Bluing for all of my metal finishing. My own firearms, or my customer's firearms are like children that I would never allow uncaring individuals to supervise. When I send a firearm out for bluing, I know that it will be cared for, and refinished correctly. From "Tomato Sticks to High end firearms" Precision will do the job beautifully. Many people will write about quality, service, delivery, etc., but the one word that I use to describe Precision Bluing is Trust. Precision Bluing has earned 100% Trust! Give them a try, and you will not be disappointed. read more

This is my email to Precision Blueing after unpacking, cleaning and oiling the ventilated barrel on the Rem 1100 which was left with them for re-bluing. In a phone call with Mark I was told they cannot blue the brass which is used to manufacture most all newer ventilated rib barrels. There answer is to return the gun and they will paint the brass. I have paint brushes and paint. My next stop is to someone with 30-40 years of experience in blueing. Looks like I will have in excess of $600 in a blueing job when all is said and done. You may also wish to request some photos of Precision Blueings Bluing facility's email Subject: Brass Message: Hi Mark I picked up my Remington 1100 yesterday. While briefly lookng at the gun yesterday I mentioned I had never seen the brass shining on the upper barrel lug mounting attachment to the barrel. I was not to overly bothered as I knew this would be covered up by the fore end. After unpack-ageing the barrel a few minuets ago in some decent lighting I see the brass shining all the way down the barrel at the base of every rib on the barrel. I am not pleased at all with this as the brass on the barrel was not visible when it was left with you. I have 5 other guns with ventilated barrels (1 an 1100) and non of them show signs of visible brass. The brass also was not near as viable when the gun was given to me covered with your buffing compound which had not been cleaned off when the gun was given to me. I looked over your website several times and did not see anywhere you state you cannot blue customers guns at least back to the condition they where sent to you in. This is not acceptable ! read more

This company claims to do a lot of contract bluing and nickeling for S&W, I made the mistake of sending a gun to them. The first time they sent it back to me they didn't strip the nickel properly, blued it, reassembled the gun and sent it to me. It came back to me blued with half the left side of the barrel still wearing nickel. The reason I initially choose this company was the fact they do contract work for S&W and it was a 30 day turn around as opposed to 5-6 month wait at most places. I would be happy to provide pictures or field any questions about of the first time I received the gun or the second time. Below is a copy and pasted email I sent to them, just want all my fellow gun owners to be wary of this company. Mark, Got the gun back today. Where to begin. I guess you took the frame apart from the barrel during the reblue because you must have slipped up re-assembling the pinned barrel. There is bare metal on the left side of the frame around the pinned barrel. The bluing does not match either. The cylinder, the prettiest part of this gun wears a factory finish, I'm guessing you didn't need to reblue that part. Right side of the barrel is about two steps down from that in terms of shine or luster and the left side of the barrel (where you left the excess nickel last time) looks like a matte finish. Not as aggressive as the matte on the top of the gun but very discernible from the beautiful cylinder. I got the check for my return shipping from the first mess-up and but I guess re-imbursing me for the expedited work is out of the question. It's been forty days since you finished the gun the first time. Looks like a Frankenstein gun now which is weird because their are hardly that many assembled parts on the outside of a revolver. In conclusion I am sad because I paid nearly $500 for you to turn this family heirloom back into a throw-in-the trunk beater. It was probably better off the way it started out just all scratched up and flaking, atleast the cylinder opened easily then. It's not as bad as the first time you sent it to me but it's not a smooth release. I also realize that if I risked sending this back for a third time then the stampings would probably be polished off altogether. I feel like flushed my money away and let you destroy my gun in the process. I was very understanding and forgiving the first go around but I feel the results are just as flagrant for someone who does this for a living. I am shocked. Disappointed read more

I highly recommend Precision Bluing. The owner, Mark, is extremely knowledgeable about metals, which means he knows exactly how to blue any metal that is sent to him. He has done many projects for my husband and me, and they are always completed in a timely manner to the highest degree of perfection. Besides being a top notch professional, Mark is also very pleasant to deal with. His wife Jennifer is as nice as he is. They will always be our go-to people for any bluing projects we have in the future. read more

Absolutely AMAZING work. As with any true art, it takes time.....but it is WELL worth the wait - and the price was ridiculously low. I sent them a barrel and receiver from an old shotgun that was never properly stored and was sitting in a family members attic for 40+ years - rusting. They sent me back works of art.....better than when they were new. I was concerned about the rusted scroll-work and if it would still look good after blasting and bluing - it's perfect! I can't thank you enough. I look forward to sending them another sentimental antique soon. read more
