I'm wondering what the ballpark is on an full engraving touch up and re-case hardening job. I'm not looking for a price, I simply want opinions on a range I can expect to pay for this type of work. I have a GH 16 0 frame I recently purchased for my wife. The metal was "cleaned" by someone with a bench grinder brush and no idea as to the crime they were committing. The metal is fine and all engraving is present, but the engraving is thin and needs to be reworked. I'm sending the bbls to be re-browned and am thinking of going ahead and giving this old beater the treatment. I'd like my wife to have a beautiful gun she can be proud of, and that she can call her own. I'd also like to get her hooked on collecting Parker guns so we can blissfully walk down the road to bankruptcy hand in penniless hand.
