[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 1824378, member: 91402"] Getting the metal to a chrome like polish before putting it in the blueing tanks is what takes the time. I have had rifles blued for about the same price as cerrokoting (can't spell that word). Stocks are the big question mark in the cost. Building and fitting a custom stock is a time-consuming process, and if you start with an expensive piece of wood the last thing you want to do is hurry. Just getting good quality checkering on a stock costs as much as many rifles. [/QUOTE]
