Ok, we're kinda proud of ourselves on these. We've developed a process to Cerakote scopes with the heat-cured H Series formula, even high end ones like the Leupold VX-6HD with Firedot in the back here. Update 2022: A few have asked if we still do these. Ha! This little blog post got indexed by Google and we were off to the races! Literally thousands now—any scope, any color. Leupold, Zeiss, Swarovski, Sig Sauer BDX, Steiner, Nightforce, Vortex, Burris & more. Made to match not only Browning X-Bolt, but the Ruger American Go Wild, Christensen Arms Mesa and Ridgeline, Weatherby Vanguard & more. We just completed our second Cerakote shop expansion in as many years, and we're the only shop on the continent with this much scope experience :) See our Cerakoted Optics pages for more info. Yes, the new Browning Smoked Bronze is an available color!

Ruger LC9S Gets a MakeoverFirst, we hand-engraved the slide on 3 sides. Then we went to town with a custom Cerakote job. The frame is subtly patterned with Copper Brown and Federal Brown, overlaid with light touches of Robin's Egg Blue.
This tough guy got his stripes last month (sorry, just love puns--it's a personal flaw.) The owner wanted to keep his gorgeous wood grips, so we did a custom mix on the Burnt Bronze base coat to pick up the lightest striations in the wood. Stripes are a Graphite Black/Burnt Bronze custom mix. We surprised him with a matching stainless can cooler, which we're sure he will only use for soft drinks while shooting :) See more recent work...
Now that we have almost two years under our belt, we're in better touch with both our customers needs and the pulse of our industry. With these greater understandings, we've revamped our online store pricing structure.
Ok, we'll admit we were pretty excited to make our first entry into Manhattan's informal "Scarecrow Parade." Our hunter's dog looks suspiciously like our own German Wirehaired Pointer, Reba. It came as suprise, though, when
Above: After. Below: Before. This Remington 870, 12 gauge, was a favorite deer hunting shotgun. A simple furniture change produced dramatic results.
Join us Monday, Sep 19th from 6-9 pm at the Manhattan Cruise Night car show. Check out the amazing cars, and stop at our booth to try out several laser training systems. We'll have SIRT (Glock replica) and LaserLyte training pistols, and a couple styles of stand-alone targets along with a full featured computer based targeting system for folks to try out. (Note: there are also laser cartridges available you can use in your favorite firearm at home, but we didn't think demonstrating those in a public space would be a good plan.) The show is at the corner of Route 52 & Manhattan-Monee Rd. See you there!
A new deep Russian Red finish brought out the beauty of this Egyptian AK-47. The matte hand-oiled finish keeps it true to it’s roots.
Item: Remington 870 12 Gauge Shotgun Work: Drill & Tap for scope mount Bill P of Western Springs, IL called needing a quick turnaround to mount a scope on his favorite turkey gun before his hunting trip. We were happy to help him out, and even happier when we received this! "Hey Jeffrey- I wanted to let you know that the rail you put on my 870 for the Burris FF 3 worked like a charm. Appreciate you getting that taken care of so quickly for me. Thanks. Bill" |
