Re: LC Smith 10 Gauge No. 00 Restoration Questions
Robert, the OO gun was the least expensive made by Hunter Arms so that should have a bearing on what you're willing to spend. I've been paying between $250.-$500 for rust bluing barrels depending on whether they are steel or damascus. Case coloring is about $500. but can vary greatly depending on engraving, polishing, etc. Stock and forend work is even more variable depending on wood condition, oil removal from the head, repairs, checkering and finishing. This is time consuming and a cost estimate could be $500-$1000. Some of these costs can be less depending on how much of this work you can self perform. If you would like to discuss your project you may call me at 717-887-0545. js, Tom .
