Franson Firearms or Mackools ??

[Honeybee]

Sorry it took so long to check it, I only check in after I am done with my work for the day.

I enjoy my work so I am a bit biased so I think I do a pretty good job.

Showing samples of my work on finished guns is not as easy as it sounds because guns get picked up pretty quick when I am done with them.

I will be doing a batch of 3 or 4 guns this weekend so if you come in early next week you will be able to see some of my craft.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone.
Donald

You can't beat Franson's for the work you're talking about.

I have seen some examples of Don's work. He does a great job and is a heck of a nice guy to boot!

Honeybee rust blue'd my 1928 Model 12 Win. It was a wreck before he started with lots of pits, etc. It was perfect when I got it back. The woodwork I did.
I'm not familiar with the other guy.

Can't speak for his work since I've never had anything worked on by him, but I have dealt with Don and can vouch for him being a great guy.

Don also did a good park job on my old family Colt New Service. He tried to rust blue it, but it was so pitted that they wouldn't quit bleeding rust. It was a pretty amazing transformation given what he had to work with.

Can he do a real Colt blue finish or does it look purpleish?

Purple is a better color anyway.
