Default Who Does A Good Job OF Rust Bluing ?

I have several doubles with fluid steel barrels that I'd like to have re-blued.I wouldn't want to take a guy like Dale Edmonds away from recoloring Damascus barrels just to do rust bluing for me ... So can anyone provide me with the name of someone who does a quality job of rust bluing at a reasonable price ?

THANKS GUYS !

These barrels on a Parker Repro SCC were reblued by Mark Beasland in a very reasonable amount of time and at a cost that didn't break the bank.

Glenn also makes Parker skeleton steel buttplates to needed size. For the person wanting something really custom, he makes them out of damascus steel.

Thanks for the tip Dave, but I need a 10-ga. like I need a hole-in-the-head, I'm holding out for a 12---or even better yet, a 20.

For those that may like to take a look at the gun I believe Dave is referring to, here's a direct link:
