Blued receiver???

[jkanarek]

Anyone know of a good "blued" receiver? It doesn't need to be a true steel blueing but something that has that very classic rifle look and would look good with a blued barrel.

I'm building a rifle with my father in law and he loves that classic old rifle look but wants to build his ultimate.

Suggestions and pictures of your build are appreciated.

Thanks!!!

An aftermarket receiver milled from a chunk of 6061 aluminum that will take to the custom anodizing may be the best way to get a good match. Maybe on paint or some other firearm coating done by a pro.

jkanarek,

Have you found a stock for your "classic" build? I would like to do a similair build.

Thanks for the advice on the receiver. I hope to be able to buy one but the custom may be my only option.

I'm still looking for the perfect stock but I'll gladly share once we have one.
