Anyone know of anyone in the SoCal area--specifically LA county--that can do bead blasting for me at a decent price? I'm looking to turn my OLL flat dark earth. :D

Peen Rite if your close to san fernando valley. They are off the 5 freeway. If i rememeber right i think they charge $40 for firearms. If you are doing more than one firearm try tro bargain for $40 for all of them. It takes them like 1 minute to blast everything.

Thanks for the info. I'm in the San Gabriel Valley. But if that's the only place, I'll probably have to head out there. I know some have told me that my receivers don't necessarily have to be blasted, but I'd like to be safe. :rolleyes:

Im sure theres some company in your area that does the same thing. search the web for a company. There are many companies that do blasting as part of their work. Probably even autobody shops would have sand blasting.

If you have a compressor you can buy the gun and media for around $40 to blast your own stuff.

I don't have a compressor, but I'm willing to get one. Links for a good deal for a compressor? :D

I don't have a set budget right now, but would like to go for bang for the buck. What should I be looking for in a compressor if all I'll be doing is blasting?

Thanks. What kind of specs should I be looking for in the air compressor?

Simi Valley isn't that far out for me. It's only 50 miles. :D

The lower receivers have been anodized as well as parked, are you sure you want to get rid of that type of protection?
