    I used Brownells cold blue on my M12 trenchgun [in the white] heat shield/mount. But Fords gunsmithing is in Florida. I can’t imagine they couldn’t blue it for you. Your pix isn’t very good but they would probably do your whole ‘97. Good luck on your build.

    I would agree and suggest exactly the same. Perhaps a simple glass bead and blue on the gun but a polish and blue so it all matches would be super nice...
